Team Up for More Fun!

A team consists of four or more people. Teammates can be friends, family members, co-workers or anyone who would like to join your team! Some teams unite to support a loved one with MS and other teams unite to support a good cause. The primary focus of a team is to motivate one another with training and fundraising as you build your relationships with your team members. Find out about becoming a team captain!

3 Simple Steps to Starting a Bike MS Team

As a part of the MS movement, you and your team are committed to a world free of MS. We’re committed to you and the success of your team.

1. Recruiting
Team members can be anybody— friends, family, co-workers, or neighbors — and they can all easily register as cyclists online. Whether you’re a corporate team or a team of family and friends, just be sure to ask everyone you know.

2. Raising Money
Fundraising comes more naturally when you make it personal. If your team is cycling for someone with MS, ask them if they would be willing to tell their story. Just be sure to follow that with a statement about how much progress we’ve made in treating the disease. Don’t forget to ask everyone who sponsors you if their employer offers matching gifts!

3. Really Having Fun!
Being a part of a team is an opportunity to share a great experience with friends and family members, or co-workers— a community coming together for a common goal and the accomplishment of a unique personal challenge!
