The first annual Ride to Conquer Cancer held June 21st and 22nd of this year, had 2,850 riders depart the CNE in Toronto and ride over 2 days to Niagara Falls. Over 100 km a day was covered by the riders for a total of 120 kilometers! Nearly 125 doctors and researchers from across Princess Margaret participated in the ride. The ride raised $14 million for Princess Margaret and medical leaders like Dr. Malcolm Moore and his team, aptly named the “Drug Peddlers”, completed the ride in fine style. The funds are going to support the highest research priorities at Princess Margaret. The Ride to Conquer Cancer is the largest cycling fundraiser in Canada thanks to riders like Dr. Malcolm Moore, Dr. Bob Bell, Dr. Ben Neel and many others.
