Registration is now open for the annual Corporate Cycling Challenge, to be held Sunday, Aug. 21.

The event will begin without a mass start and other precautions in place for COVID-19. All tours will begin and end at the Capitol District Plaza located at 11th and Capitol streets. Tour distances include 10-, 25- and 42-mile options. Check-in and the rolling start will be from 7:30-9:30 a.m.

Winners are based on the number of miles a team accumulates. The miles of family members of employees who participate count toward half of the team point total. The UNMC/Nebraska Medicine team won in 2016, 2018, 2019, 2020 and 2021.

Interested participants can sign up to join the UNMC/Nebraska Medicine team through July 25 online.

Riders also can order a T-shirt for $10. Employees ride free unless they want a shirt, and family members pay $5 without a shirt and $15 with a T-shirt. Proceeds benefit the Eastern Nebraska Trails Network.
