Our story · Since 2008

One name. So many reasons to ride.

Team Erin began in memory of Erin Belman. Nineteen years later, her name brings us together for our twentieth Ride.

Erin is why
we began.

Erin Belman died of pancreatic cancer at the age of 49. She was brave and kind. Team Erin carries her name, and her memory, into every Ride.

Our community has grown to include family, friends, and riders with their own cancer stories. It is about Erin, and it is about the people each of us holds close.

Every Rider
Is Needed.

That’s what ERIN means to us now, too.

You don’t need to have known Erin to belong here. You can join with your own story, your own hopes, and your own reason to help. Together, we support The Princess Margaret and the work toward a future with less cancer.

2008—2027

Twenty years of showing up.

In 2027, both Team Erin and the Ride reach their twentieth year. We’ll remember the people who brought us here—and welcome the people who will be part of what comes next.

There’s a place for you here.

Bring your reason to ride. We’ll bring the company.
