Pedals for POPs is a road cycling and running race on September 26, 2026 in Fayetteville, NY, with entry fees from $25 to $45.
From the Organizer
Pedals for POPs is On My Team16's 5th annual 16-mile bike ride, taking place on September 26th, along the Erie Canal. The ride will start at 10 am, with a post-ride party after. The ride's starting and finishing point will be at Canal Landing Park in Fayetteville, N.Y (120 Limestone Plaza, Fayetteville, N.Y 13066).
In addition to the 16-mile bike ride, we have also added a 3K walk / kids bike ride. We have that scheduled to start 30 minutes after the bike riders go off (10:30am). This is another opportunity for those who don't bike to get involved and for kids to get involved!
On My Team16's mission is to comfort and support pediatric oncology patients, families, and caregivers by raising money through athletics. And, with September being Pediatric Cancer Awareness Month, we invite you to join us in pedaling for a cause. Each mile of the 16-mile course will be dedicated to a brave child from our community who is currently battling cancer or who has sadly lost their battle with cancer.
Both registrations are $45 per person (kids registrations are $25) and that fee includes event access, course refreshments, a t-shirt, and access to the post-race party with drink & food specials for riders. All funds raised from the event will go back into our community to comfort and support those battling pediatric cancer.
More information on a post-ride celebration will be announced soon!
If you sign up before 9/10, you will get your requested shirt size. If you sign up after 9/10 we can not guarantee you an event shirt.
If you need to rent a bike, you can do so through the bike shop, Resource Cycling, on ride day. If you are interested in renting, please email jordan@onmyteam16.com or call/text 315-247-9957 after you sign up! We will get you all taken care of.
