BRIDGEPORT — Here's a challenge for you: Ride your bicycle around Lake Michigan.

That's the engine behind the upcoming Bike4ROW event, a 1,000-mile cycling ride around the great lake over 15 days. The ride runs from July 26 through Aug. 9,

But you don't have to ride the entire trail. Riders can take part all 15 days, one week or one day. If you don't want to ride, you can still donate or volunteer during the event.

Bridgeport-based Bike4ROW supports Recovery on Water, a rowing program for breast cancer survivors. Proceeds from the event will fund an effort to find a permanent home for Recovery on Water: a brand new boathouse on the Chicago River's South Branch.
