“We’re coming off of a record-breaking fundraising year for Dana-Farber, and we’re thrilled to be ‘back in the saddle’ this summer, bringing our PMC community together for our first traditional PMC weekend since 2019 with our sights set on making an even bigger impact in the fight against cancer,” Billy Starr, founder and executive director of the PMC, said. “We are so inspired by the dedication of our riders, volunteers, donors, sponsors, and community members throughout the last two challenging years and can’t wait to see everyone on the road this August for the 43rd PMC.”
