Rochester Cyclists Participate in Motor City Bike Ride Fundraiser

Last weekend's Motor City Bike Ride, an effort through Danialle Karmanos' Work It Out and the DMC Children's Hospital of Michigan, drew some local cyclists.

Sonia Kobylecki and Natalie Burzynski of Rochester were among those participating in the ride in support of Danialle Karmanos' Work It Out's youth programming.

The ride offered two routes originating from Detroit's Campus Martius Park, a 20-mile "Fun Ride" to Belle Isle Park and the 62-mile Metric Century Ride to Metro Beach Metropark. 

Funds raised from the event benefit the Danialle  Karmanos' Work It Out's youth programs, which promote optimum health in mind, body and spirit through a comprehensive yoga-based approach that reduces anxiety, helps prevent childhood obesity and increases children’s self-esteem.
