Team SCC, Salk’s Cancer Center cycling group, shifted into high gear this summer to train for the fourth annual Pedal the Cause fundraising ride for cancer research. Rebranded this year as Padres Pedal the Cause, the November 12-13 event will feature courses of varying lengths and challenges beginning and ending at Petco Park. This spring, Salk joined Moores Cancer Center at UC San Diego Health, Sanford Burnham Prebys Medical Discovery Institute and Rady Children’s Hospital in receiving $1.3 million in grant funding from the 2015 ride.
