Held in Genesee Valley Park in Rochester, the Rochester Cyclocross is an off-road bike race for racers from around the country. We’re proud to sponsor this event where bike racers can put their skills to the test against the best riders from all over the United States.

Join us at this gala to mingle and know you’re benefiting those who are vulnerable and need assistance with accessing therapy.
