Press Release from Pedals the Cause:
Event to Raise Funds for Cancer Research Starts at 8:00 AM on Saturday, October 10th
West Plains, MO – Get ready to ride for a cause! On Saturday, October 10th, 2026, the West
Plains community will come together for West Plains Rides for Pedal the Cause, an inspiring
event dedicated to raising critical funds for cancer research. Riders of all skill levels are invited
to join us at 8:00 AM at the West Plains High School Parking Lot as we pedal with purpose
and unity.
Pedal the Cause is more than a bike ride—it’s a movement to create a world without cancer.
Every mile ridden, every dollar raised, and every sponsor’s support plays a vital role in
advancing cancer research and supporting families in our region and beyond.
We would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to our leading sponsors Leonardo DRS and
Community First Banking Company, Edward Jones, along with 15 additional generous
community business sponsors, whose commitment and support have been instrumental in
making this event and our fundraising efforts possible. Your partnership fuels progress and
hope.
We invite the entire community to come out and ride, cheer, or volunteer. Together, we can
make a difference—one pedal stroke at a time.
