Whichever route you choose, the spirit of CycleTherapy: Ride for ARBI remains the same—uniting cyclists for a greater cause. Since 2012, CycleTherapy has achieved remarkable success, raising over $328,000 for brain injury and stroke recovery in Alberta. While there is no registration fee or minimum fundraising requirement, our collective goal for this event is to raise $40,000 to support brain injury and stroke survivors. The funds raised will directly benefit ARBI clients whose rehabilitation expenses are not covered by government funding. This financial support is vital for our clients’ progress and enables them to reintegrate into the community meaningfully, benefiting not only themselves but also their families and support networks.
