AIDS LifeCycle ending in 2025, but riders and researchers say the fundraiser is needed more than ever

Organizers of the AIDS LifeCycle fundraising ride from San Francisco to Los Angeles say 2025 will be the event's last year. They said a drop in riders and donations, along with escalating costs led to the decision. It comes, however, as AIDS researchers say funding for HIV/AIDS programs is declining, and some riders are urging the organizers to reconsider.
