Frequently Asked Questions

Registration & Your Participant Center

WHAT IS THE REGISTRATION FEE?

Registration includes a swag bag that will be mailed to you before the ride if you register as a virtual rider on or before 9/8. Inside you’ll find a Pedal 4 Possible fanny pack, a customizable bib, and more goodies. Only registered participants will receive a swag bag, so encourage everyone in your family to register!
If you register as an in-person participant, you will receive your swag back at packet pickup.

AM I REQUIRED TO FUNDRAISE IN ORDER TO PARTICIPATE?

Fundraising is not required, but we strongly encourage each participant to raise money to support patients at Craig. Plus, you'll earn fundraising prizes if you raise $300 or more by September 27! Use our Fundraising Guide to help maximize your fundraising efforts!

HOW MANY PEOPLE ARE ON A TEAM? CAN I HAVE THE SAME TEAM AS LAST YEAR?

Teams must have at least two members.
Team captains have the ability to bring back last year's team when they login to register.

WHAT IS MY PARTICIPATION CENTER? WHERE CAN I FIND IT?

Once you register, you will have access to an online fundraising center. Customize your personal page with your Craig story and why you're raising money. Use the online tools to send emails to help you reach your fundraising goal!

DO I NEED TO REGISTER MY CHILD?

Yes. We require riders of all ages to register and the pre-registration fee for children ages 4-12 is $40, day-of registration is $50.
If your child is 3 or under and riding a trailer on the 10K, you do not need to register them. Only children who are riding independently on their own bike need to be registered.
Parents may register children as secondary riders when they register themselves. If the child does not have an email address, parents may use their own email for their child's registration.

HOW DO I PARTICIPATE VIRTUALLY?

Celebrate what’s possible from your own homes and neighborhoods by doing any kind of recreational activity from September 15-18. Prefer to complete your activity in one day? Great! Do you want to take it slow-and-steady? That's fine too! You get to create your own goals and rules!
Make sure you tag your photos and videos of your activity on your own social media accounts using the hastag #P4P21. We will highlights some of these pics and participant stories during Pedal 4 Possible week on Craig's social media channels.

CAN I REGISTER MORE THAN ONE PERSON AT A TIME?

Yes! You may register multiple participants in one registration payment. Please make sure you have accurate Jersey/Summit Top sizes. You will not be able to register additional participants after the registration is complete. NOTE: As long as you have used separate emails for each participant, everyone registered will have access to their own personal page in the Participant Center.

I REGISTERED BUT NOW I CAN'T ATTEND. CAN I GET A REFUND?

We are happy to transfer your registration to another participant, but we cannot offer a refund for any reason.

I REGISTERED LAST YEAR, BUT I CAN'T REMEMBER MY PASSWORD. HOW DO I RESET IT?

Click the "login" button on the homepage and you will be directed to a page where you will have the option to click "Forgot User Name" or "Forgot Password." Still having trouble? Contact us, and we'll be happy to help!

WHAT IS MY RIDER NUMBER?

In your packet, you will receive a rider number. Please follow the instructions on the rider number sheet to properly assemble and attach your rider number and wristband. All items are color-coded to match the course you have elected to ride. You must wear your rider number and wristband at all times during the ride. The helmet tag is optional, though encouraged.

Donations

HOW MUCH OF MY DONATION WILL BENEFIT CRAIG PATIENTS?

Pedal 4 Possible provides patients with spinal cord and brain injuries with unique programs that challenge the status quo of typical rehabilitation. These Culture of Care programs, like Therapeutic Recreation, Community Reintegration, and Assistive Technology, are vital to patients’ holistic rehabilitation and help them rebuild a life filled with possibilities. But these programs are not covered by insurance! They rely on participants like YOU. One hundred percent of every dollar that you raise through your Pedal 4 Possible fundraising goes directly to Craig’s Culture of Care fund. The event is planned entirely by an interdisciplinary team of Craig therapists and Foundation staff members. The result? An event with heart—a personal, intimate experience infused with Craig magic. Maybe you’ve felt the power of Craig’s Culture of Care yourself as a patient or family member. Maybe you’ve heard the stories of so many who go through Craig and want to help. Whatever your passion, whatever your reason, Craig’s Culture of Care could not exist without generous people like YOU. Thanks for participating!
