Episode Synopsis

One Rider, One Team, One Million Dollars — Curtis’s Story Curtis was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in his twenties. What began as fear quickly turned into action. A chance connection to a support group sparked the creation of Team CCC — a cycling team that would go on to raise nearly $1 million for MS research and support. With every mile, Curtis has redefined what leadership looks like in the face of a chronic illness. In this episode, Curtis reflects on the moment a fellow rider convinced him to try Bike MS, the early days of hiding his diagnosis, and how polka dot jerseys became a symbol of visibility and community. From forming a nonprofit to building a virtual cycling presence on Zwift, his story is one of purpose, persistence, and the power of showing up. This is not just a story about reaching a milestone. It’s about choosing to turn a diagnosis into momentum — and inspiring others to do the same. Help Curtis and Team CCC cross the $1 million finish line.
