planned ride. Also, rides will be cancelled when winds are above 12
miles per hour.

- We will be riding increasingly earlier on Saturdays as temperatures
become warmer, but Sunday rides will remain in the afternoon until
participating riders vote to change the time. We don't want to

- Saturday rides are typically longer in distance and faster in pace.
Sundays are intended to be more casual rides of 20 to 30 miles and an
easier pace.

Testimonials
“Wow!
We had several Midland/Odessa cyclists participate in this event and
the feedback was overwhelmingly positive. Our friends in
Southeast New Mexico really know how to organize a cycling event.”
- Kent
Crowell, Midland, Texas
“We’ve
watched this event develop over the past few years into something
special! The attention to detail and level of support is just
amazing and we really enjoy riding in the Roll for the Cure.”
- Carol
Clowes, Lubbock, Texas
“I’ve
ridden the Ted McVay Roll for the Cure several times and found it to
be one of the best organized and most supported events anywhere.
Would strongly recommend this event for cyclists of all levels from
hard charging racers to people who are new to the sport. This is
a great family event with entertainment, food, and fun.”
-
Jim Harris, Lovington, New Mexico
“As
a cycling event organizer, I really understand what is needed for an
exceptional cycling experience, and man, the Roll for the Cure has it
all. Thanks for an amazing event with an unbelievable amount of
support!”
– Pat
Vigil, Levelland, Texas
“This
event was a great preparatory ride for the Hotter N Hell! The
terrain, route, conditions were very similar – I felt especially
well prepared for the Hotter N Hell following this event and it has an
unbelievable level of support – police at intersections, hydration
stations every 9 to 13 miles, ride marshals, SAG vehicles, mechanics
– name it, they had it. Highly recommend this ride – you
won’t be disappointed”
- Ric
Crosby, Hobbs, New Mexico
“As
a former professional racer, I choose regional cycling events
carefully. Having participated in every Roll for the Cure in
Hobbs, I’ve come to think of this as one of the best rides in New
Mexico and Texas with incredible support. These guys are
seriously committed to providing an excellent cycling experience,
which is why I travel over six hundred miles roundtrip to participate.
Hat’s off to the Ted McVay Roll for the Cure – can’t wait for
2012!”
- Chad Patterson, Albuquerque, New Mexico
