2024 Update: Huge thanks to all who donated to this fundraiser for Mike and Mackenzie's wedding in September- we raised over $3000 for Alzheimer's research!

Who We Are: We're the friends and family of the late great Dr. Paul Ernsting (Ernie), who was diagnosed with early onset Alzheimer's in 2012 and passed away in 2022. This will be our 5th Ride to End Alzheimer's, thank you to all who have ridden with us and supported us in previous rides!

Why We Ride: Alzheimer’s disease is the sixth-leading cause of death in the United States. Nearly 7 million Americans are living with Alzheimer’s, and over 11 million are acting as their caregivers. 

We are going the distance for all those affected while raising funds and awareness to advance research toward the first survivor of Alzheimer’s. 

Right now, there is no shortage of ideas in Alzheimer’s research — only dollars. But together, we can help change that. 100 percent of the funds raised from this event will go toward the Association’s efforts to discover methods of treatment and prevention for Alzheimer's and other dementias. 

Alzheimer’s touches all of us, and it will take all of us to end it. Please join our team or donate today.
