IT’S CANCER’S TURN TO BE AFRAID.

Register here for the 2024 MACA Cancer 200 Ride for the Perkins

About the Ride

No other ride is more community-focused, heartfelt or inspirational than the MACA Cancer 200. The 2023 event – thanks to Riders, donors, volunteers, and supporters – raised a record $8.8 million!

2024 will be the 13th Ride. It’s a personal challenge to those who choose it: riding 200km in two days to fight cancer and support medical research at the Perkins.

Unlike other rides, the MACA Cancer 200 is not a race. It’s an emotional, challenging, personal event where new people start as strangers and end as a family. All abilities and fitness levels are welcome.

Look out for the flagged bike riders. They are riding as cancer survivors or patients. We ride for them and with them.

Remember, we ride to do something bigger than we could achieve alone, to strengthen our minds and bodies and to provide hope to people living with cancer.

Fundraising Rewards

There are a number of special rewards to recognise your incredible fundraising efforts. Raise a minimum of $2,500 and you’ll earn your official Ride jersey. Raise more, and you can earn some exciting rewards. More information on your rewards will be available soon!

Partner Offers
