Craig's Annual 50-mile Bike Ride for the Alzheimer's Association

By Craig Madsen Join Me

Event Details

Date and time

June 20, 2026 07:00 AM

We're riding to fight Alzheimer's Disease!

As I have done 5 times before,  I will ride one of my old European steel road bikes 50 miles to raise money for the Alzheimer's Association.  Thanks to so many of you, my efforts and your generosity have resulted in over $64,000 in donations to this important cause.  My pal, Keith Boswell, has been my cycling partner on 4 previous rides and will be once again on June 20.  


In prior years the event was called "The Longest Day," and was a nationwide event for the Alzheimer's Association.  This year it has been rebranded as "Do What you Love to end ALZ," and as I love riding ancient bikes,  I'm sticking with the 50-mile ride with my lovely wife, Corrine, providing ice cream pops and frozen washcloths somewhere around the 30-mile mark. 

As always, I am grateful for your support.  Please click on the secure link to make a donation to the Alzheimer's Association today!


Thank you to all our supporters

This is such a good cause & you are such a great guy. Riding Steel is the way to go! No school like Old School on anything that roils down the road (motored or manual) :-) Hope all is well. Enjoy the ride & ice pops.
