For more than 20 years, riders have been coming to the Tri-State Trek for an unforgettable weekend of riding bikes, seeing friends, and supporting ALS Research. The Trek is ALS TDI’s signature fundraiser, and it has raised more than $10 million dollars to support our research to end ALS. It has also become something of a family affair, with riders who have been showing up for years, or even decades.

Rinaldo and Sara Dorman have been an essential part of the Trek for 11 years. Rinaldo is the captain of Team America, one of the Trek’s biggest and most dedicated teams. His wife Sara is a longtime volunteer who serves as the leader of the lunch crew – a job that requires feeding hundreds of hungry, sweaty cyclists every day.

Rinaldo and Sara joined us to discuss how they got involved with the Trek, why they keep coming back year after year, and why they’re especially excited for this year’s ride on June 24-25th.
