Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), also known as Lou Gehrig’s Disease is a progressive and fatal form of motor neuron disease with no cure or known causes. This is where you come in. For us to win the fight against ALS, more research has to be done to find a cure and you can help by partaking in a fun ride at the beautiful Olson Park on Ann Arbor’s Northside. See you there!
