The 12th Closer to Free Ride will take place on Saturday, September 10. The annual ride raises funds to benefit research and care for the Smilow Cancer Hospital and Yale Cancer Center.
Riders interested can participate in-person or virtually this year.
There are five in-person routes, ranging from 10 to 100 miles long, that kick off at the Yale Bowl in New Haven at 6:45 a.m. Those who wish to participate remotely can sign up for any distance and location.
Volunteer opportunities are also available along the routes and at the Yale Bowl for those who can't ride, but would like to participate in the event.
