THE STORY BEHIND PEAKS TO CONGA:
Thirteen years ago, a group of women, dressed in pink and riding motorcycles in a conga line, passed through Shell, Wyoming. At Dirty Annies, our founder Laurie Stoelk learned about their missionraising awareness and funds in the fight against breast cancer. Inspired by their passion, Laurie and a small group of cyclists took on the challenge the following year, riding the 66 miles from Cody to Shell, escorted by Flo and her "Conga Gals." Since that first ride, the event has grown, with more riders taking to Highway 14 each June. While Flo and her conga line no longer escort the rideher legacy lives on. Seasoned riders often say: "Just go with the Flo." _Join us in keeping that spirit alive while supporting an important cause!_

PEAKS TO CONGA MISSION & VISION:
We stand for unity in support of our fellow Bighorn basin community members who are currently or have been affected by cancer. Every year we organize a bike ride and fundraiser in honor of our friends, family and community and to help offset the emotional and monetary expenses of those currently residing in the Bighorn basin area who are afflicted with cancer. We ride to show solidarity in the suffering that goes with physical exertion and cancer. We raise money in order to give all cancer care providers fuel and grocery cards to distribute to their patients in need. Every year we distribute approximately $30 to $35 thousand dollars to cancer patients in Park County, Bighorn County, Washakie County and Hot Springs County. We live by our logo and hold strong to the fact that People Everywhere are Kind and Sharing, PEAKS to Conga. Our vision is to continue the momentum of what we have done the last 14 years of service to our community. We hope to see PEAKS to Conga continue to be a ride about community. It is not just a ride. It is a service and a testimony to the power of communities taking care of their own.
