LOWVELO26
About the Event
LOWVELO is an annual fundraising event that rallies the community for one great cause – funding lifesaving cancer research at MUSC Hollings Cancer Center, the only National Cancer Institute-designated cancer center in South Carolina. Our goal is to eradicate cancer by supporting research at Hollings that investigates new treatments and promising approaches to finding cures. 100% of every participant-raised dollar from this grassroots event goes directly to cancer research.
Participation is open to all ages for the 7- and 14-mile rides, age 13 and up for the Spin® classes, age 14 and up for the 23- and 50-mile rides and age 16 and up for the 80-mile ride. Each rider commits to the cause by fundraising at least a minimum amount based on their chosen distance.
Together, we can change what’s possible in cancer care. We thank you for your support!
The LOWVELO26 brings an exciting 11.3K, 22.5K, 37K, Ultra to Isle of Palms, South Carolina on November 7, 2026. Don't miss this beautiful event!
