Just two days
Weedsport to Niagara Falls
Empire State Ride is a bucket list ride, but cycling for seven days across one state while fundraising $3,500 is a big commitment. Our two-day ride is perfect for those looking to get a taste of the #ESR26 experience.
The two-day challenge for 2026 is officially full. Join the Priority Registration List for 2027 to be the first to get in the door!

All about fundraising
As a two-day rider, you’re still making an impact in the mission to end cancer, but the fundraising commitment is lower than the weeklong. Two-day cyclists must raise $1,000 by July 30 in order to participate. Our tools and team are here to help you reach – and exceed – your goal.
Shorter adventure,
same mission
While the miles may be shorter, two-day riders are still a part of our mission to end cancer. The funds you raise support cutting-edge cancer research at Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center and help bring innovative research and cutting-edge clinical trials to life.
I hope that we can use these funds in a way that gets new diagnostic tools approved, that gets trials going that bring us closer to curing one form of cancer or another, so that my children or my grandchildren will have hope.
