Pedaling for Payson 2023

Join the Concord Hospital Trust on Saturday, September 9th, 2023 for the 18th Annual Pedaling for Payson Bike Event at Elm Brook Park in Hopkinton, NH!

This community event attracts over 300 cyclists annually who help to support Concord Hospital Payson Center for Cancer Care. Monies raised are used to provide our most vulnerable patients with a Nurse Navigator. The Nurse Navigator is a staff member, a "professional family member", dedicated to helping cancer patients find the medical, community, and financial support they need quickly, which in turn, helps to calm the patient’s anxieties related to their treatment.  No one should have to experience cancer alone and by participating in Pedaling for Payson, you are helping to ensure that patients at the Payson Center have access to the Nurse Navigator program.

So come out and join us for a road, mountain, or gravel ride and ride in honor of a family member or friend, a survivor, or someone who is no longer with us.  Whatever your reason may be, consider joining in on all that Pedaling for Payson has to offer.

Pedaling for Payson has raised over a million dollars thus far in support of the Gene Gillis Fund, specifically supporting patients in need at Concord Hospital Payson Center for Cancer Care. The Fund covers out-of-pocket expenses such as gift cards for gas, groceries, nutritional supplements, and other items to improve the quality of life for patients battling cancer. In 2017, the Pedaling for Payson Committee created the Pedaling for HOPE Fund to go a step further and provide additional funds to support Nurse Navigation at the Payson Center to ensure patients have access to a critical support system during their time being treated, and beyond.

We look forward to another successful year and hope to see you at Elm Brook Park in Hopkinton, NH!
