2012 Registration online is open!
Register as a Rider
It was an absolutely amazing experience. I started out doing the ride for the personal challenge. I had been told that it would become more than that, but didn't really believe it. After meeting the people on the ride, learning more about PWA and then meeting some of the people who need those services, the ride became something that I was proud to be a part of. The physical challenge, the people that I met along the way and knowing how much of a difference it really does make, made this one of the most rewarding experiences I've ever had. Thanks to everyone who made this possible.

Show your courage, build your confidence and push your muscles in six days that you'll never forget! The Bike Rally is not a race - you don't need to have an expensive bike or be a professional cyclist to participate. You just need the commitment to train, to fundraise and to learn how to ride safely.
As part of the experience, each rider must raise a minimum of $2,200 to sponsor their trip. This will allow us to cover expenses for each and every participant while still raising significant funds for the Toronto People With AIDS Foundation. You will be supported in every aspect of the challenge from the physical training to the fundraising. So sign up for an experience that you will remember for a lifetime!
The 14th annual Friends for Life Bike Rally will be held from Sunday July 29 to Friday Aug 3, 2012.
Registration:
- Register online for $100 (or $80 if you register before Jan 22, 2012); or,
- Print and complete the 2012 Rider Registration Form (and bring it to the launch party or PWA offices); or,
- Register in person at the PWA offices by contacting This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it
The registration fee does NOT count toward your minimum $2,200 pledge total. You will not receive a charitable donation receipt for your registration fee.
After completing the online registration, you will receive a confirmation email.
Register as Crew
It was amazing. I was tired at times and didn't feel like cheering, but I carried on with great support from my van partner. The last night at the campfire sharing was very touching. I clearly thought of the people I've known who have died of AIDS and a friend now who is partnered with someone who is HIV+, yet very healthy. I came out of the Rally with a new friend as well...

Teamwork, that's what it takes to get hundreds of participants from Toronto to Montreal in under six days. Our crew of volunteers are integral to the success of the Bike Rally and are the main reason we have so much fun along the way!
There are four main areas that make up the Crew for the Bike Rally: Food, Wellness, Rubbermaid Rustlers and Road Safety. Whether you have a special skill or would like to learn a new one, we have just the place for you on our Crew! Find more detailed information about participating as Crew in the Volunteer section.

Currently, crew registration for 2012 is not open, but will begin as soon as our crew leads have been selected. In the meantime, please complete the Crew Volunteer Application Form and submit it to:
