The PMC Living Proof® community is made up of riders and volunteers who are undergoing cancer treatment or were previously treated – Living Proof of the progress made in supporting cancer research and treatment.
Living Proof riders and volunteers are celebrated during PMC weekend at Mass Maritime Academy in Bourne on Saturday and at Babson College in Wellesley on Sunday.
In 2018, 901 Living Proof riders and volunteers participated in the PMC.
The PMC Pedal Partner Program pairs pediatric cancer patients (Pedal Partners) at the Jimmy Fund with PMC riders and teams. The program offers an inspiring opportunity for PMC riders to connect with their Pedal Partners who get to be part of the PMC while they are being treated for cancer.

The PMC encourages teams to build relationships with the families, though each relationship between the families and teams varies, depending on the level of involvement the teams and families want, the health of the Pedal Partners, and other factors.
How to Participate in the PMC Pedal Partner Program
Children participating in the Pedal Partner Program must be current or recent patients at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute’s Jimmy Fund Clinic.
If you are a rider interested in being paired with a Pedal Partner or a parent of a child who would like to be a Pedal Partner, please email Susan
Every effort is made to match all interested PMC riders and Jimmy Fund patients in the program, but there is a deadline in place so that all Pedal Partners are able to participate in the PMC’s Pedal Partner events, which begin in May.
