The American Lung Association in West Virginia (ALA-WV) is now registering participants for the 28th annual Greenbrier River Trail Bike Trek (GTBT). Biking enthusiasts won’t want to miss this exciting 100-mile ride through the scenic Greenbrier River State Park, May 14-17.

After checking-in on Thursday evening, the event kicks-off early Friday, May 15. Trekkers will ride off of Snowshoe Mountain and spend the next three days peddling through Pocahontas and Greenbrier counties ending 100 miles later at the Greenbrier Youth Camp in Anthony, on Sunday, May 17.

Food, refreshments, accommodations, gear truck, sag wagon and entertainment are all included in the GTBT package. The trek is supported with mechanics, guides, medical personnel and a communications network.

“The trek is designed for beginners as well as experienced mountain bikers,” says Chantal Fields, vice president of Mission, ALA-WV. “It is a great way for families to spend a weekend together and support a great cause.”

Companies are encouraged to enter teams of four or more riders in the corporate team division. Trophies and prizes are awarded to top individual and team fundraisers. All proceeds from the trek will benefit the ALA-WV’s fight against lung disease in the mountain state.

There is a $55 non-refundable registration fee and trekkers are required to raise $500 each in pledges. Those who raise more than $1,000 become a member of the Winner’s Circle and receive special prizes. All funds raised will be used to fight asthma, COPD, emphysema and lung cancer through education, community service, advocacy and research.

The registration deadline is May 1. To register or obtain more information about the trek please call Chantal Fields at 304-342-6600 or 1-800-LUNG-USA or go to www.lunginfo.org/trek.
