Pittsburgh CF Cycle for Life 2026
Pittsburgh CF Cycle for Life 2026
Join us on Saturday, September 12, for the Annual Pittsburgh CF Cycle for Life. More than a ride, it's a mission-driven community event-uniting cyclists, families, and supporters who are committed to making a lasting impact for people living with cystic fibrosis.
Starting & finishing at Hazelwood Brew House, this fully supported charity ride brings together cyclists, families, and the CF community for an unforgettable day dedicated to advancing the mission to cure cystic fibrosis.
Every mile and every dollar matters. Your participation drives critical research and high-quality care for people living with CF - and while progress has been made, the fight is far from over. Together, we can make an incredible impact. Whether you ride 12 miles or 70, Cycle for Life is more than a ride-it's a chance to take action, build momentum, and be part of a community that refuses to stop until we cross the ultimate finish line: a cure for CF.
