For the first time since the '30s, cancer deaths are declining and survival rates, for adults and children, are growing - 64% of adults and 78% of children diagnosed today will still be with us five years from now. Yet last year, for the first time in a decade, Congress cut research funding at the National Institutes of Health. Ride with the Lance Armstrong Foundation and support the more than 10 million Americans currently living with cancer and the more than 1.3 million Americans who will be diagnosed this year.  

 ClevelandBikes kicks off its summer ride to work schedule on Friday May 19th with regular rides on the last Friday of the month. For more information about ClevelandBikes and Bike to Work, visit their website (ww.clevelandbikes.org).
