A big community bike ride for all ages is Saturday in Little Rock and North Little Rock.

Tour de Rock is an opportunity for everyone to join in on some bike riding fun.

Starting at the Burns Park Soccer Complex in North Little Rock, Tour de Rock includes two separate courses - a Family Fun Ride across the Big Dam Bridge and an Advanced Ride for the experienced cyclists.

Your can ride 10 miles or all the way to 100.

It's all to raise money for the Central Arkansas Radiation Therapy Institute (CARTI) as they help patients undergoing cancer treatment.

Registration continues from noon today until seven o'clock tonight at St. Vincent.

Riders can pickup all their materials for the ride on Saturday, including numbers and t-shirts.

This is a huge fundraiser for CARTI, which serves 14-thousand cancer patients a year.   

"And this is one of our events we do to support our cancer patients. And we're very excited, we'll have about a thousand riders out there on Saturday," says CARTI Marketing Coordinator Jennifer McConser.

KARK 4 is a media sponsor of the event.

Saturday morning at seven o'clock, check back with ArkansasMatters.com to watch a live stream from Tour de Rock.
