A popular Northern Arizona bike race will have its 13th ride in two weeks, and riders can still sign up.

The Pepsi-Cola Taylor House Century Ride is set for Saturday, July 20, and will give cyclists the opportunity to ride through the beautiful views of Northern Arizona while supporting a good cause.

In cooperation with a bike shop in Flagstaff and the Flagstaff Medical Center Foundation, the annual charity road ride benefits the Taylor House, a home-away-from-home for families of patients in the Flagstaff Medical Center.

Proceeds from this event go to allow family members of patients to stay just across the street from their loved ones at the Taylor House hospitality house.

“We both like to support the Taylor House and it’s a nice, comfortable ride in a beautiful area,” said Sedona resident Michael Harris, 61, who will participate in the ride with his daughter, Lisa Harris, 41, for the second year in a row.
