Bike MS Wyoming Bike MS Wyoming is a two-day, 160 mile journey along some of Wyoming’s most scenic roads, offering a challenge for novices and experienced cyclists alike. Participants enjoy three catered meals each day, fully-stocked rest stops, excellent route support and entertainment through the weekend. This year, more than 300 cyclists and 125 volunteers will participate in this great ride.

Due to the valuable support of our sponsors, Walk MS and Bike MS are better able to provide vital resources to fund promising research as well as critical programs, financial aid, education and services for those living with MS. Our goal with your sponsorship is to increase your company exposure, engage and expand your stakeholders and make a real impact in the lives of those living with MS. We value our corporate community partners; together we will cure MS. If you don’t find the perfect sponsorship opportunity, let us know and we will customize a specific package to meet your needs.
