Pelotonia, founded in Columbus, Ohio in 2009, started as a grassroots bike tour, but has evolved to a movement that includes, engages, inspires, and challenges a community to change the world by accelerating innovative cancer research – and, Simply Community proudly stands together as a loyal team fueling this effort since day one.

Simply Community, simply characterized, is a dedicated, caring, eclectic family of Pelotonia riders, virtual riders, volunteers, and supporters who share a common goal: End Cancer.  While cancer is our ultimate adversary and the connection that identifies our drive and purpose, it is the people and relationships that are the foundational core and heart of who we are and why we exist.  We welcome and embrace everyone - from young professionals to sitting executives, young children to retirees, neighbors to family members, colleagues to friends - to join our unified and passionate team!

Over the past 12 years, Simply Community has raised more than $2.3 million dollars for life-saving cancer research at The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Hospital – Arthur G. James Cancer Hospital and Richard J. Solove Research Institute (OSUCCC-James).  Collectively and cumulatively, along with many other dedicated peloton teams, selfless volunteers, generous donors and business partners, our combined efforts have contributed to over $209+ million raised by Pelotonia for cancer research.
