From the organizers
Pedal the Cause, presented by Edward Jones, is thrilled to return September 19-20, 2026, for its seventeenth year of raising critical funds for cancer research at the Family Arena in St. Charles, Mo.
Whether you sign up to ride, spin, participate virtually, or volunteer, you'll be making a difference in the fight against cancer. As always, 100% of funds raised from Pedal the Cause support cancer research at Siteman Cancer Center and Siteman Kids at St. Louis Children’s Hospital. To date, Pedal the Cause has donated over $56 million for cancer research.
