PEAKS to Conga: A Ride with Purpose About the Ride: PEAKS to Conga is an annual road bike ride and cancer fundraiser from Cody to Shell, Wyoming. All proceeds benefit PEAKS (People Everywhere Are Kind & Sharing), a nonprofit that supports cancer patients in the Big Horn Basin by helping cover gas, groceries, and other non-medical expenses during treatment. Since its inception, the ride has raised more than $450,000 to assist local friends, family, neighbors, and coworkers facing cancer. Join us for our 16th annual ride on Saturday, June 19, 2027! This is a fun, non-competitive, fully supported event that begins at 7:00 AM at the parking lot of Cody Coffee Roasters and Acension FBO Network (3001 Duggleby Dr, Cody, WY). The 66-mile route features rolling hills adorned with tribute signs honoring those who have battled or are currently fighting cancer. The ride ends in the quaint community of Shell, Wyoming. After the ride, relax in Shell’s community green space and grab food or drinks from 307 Pizza, the Shell Bar or Shell Store. Stick around for yard games and an afternoon of live music starting at noon. We will also have a raffle and local vendors, including massages ($1/min) to sooth your muscles after the long ride! We will also have a craft/card table where anyone can make inspirational cards for the cancer patients that receive PEAKS grants. Make sure to bring cash for vendor purchases and for the raffle! Registration for this fully supported event is $100 (there is a processing fee of $7.00). There are no refunds. You can view the course map here: PEAKS to Conga 2026 - CalTopo .

The Story Behind PEAKS to Conga: Sixteen years ago, a group of women, dressed in pink and riding motorcycles in a conga line, passed through Shell, Wyoming. At Dirty Annie’s, our founder Laurie Stoelk learned about their mission—raising awareness and funds in the fight against breast cancer. Inspired by their passion, Laurie and a small group of cyclists took on the challenge the following year, riding the 66 miles from Cody to Shell, escorted by Flo and her "Conga Gals." Since that first ride, the event has grown, with more riders taking to Highway 14 each June. While Flo and her conga line no longer escort the ride—her legacy lives on. Seasoned riders often say: "Just go with the Flo." Join us in keeping that spirit alive while supporting an important cause!
PEAKS to Conga Mission & Vision: We stand for unity in support of our fellow Bighorn basin community members who are currently or have been affected by cancer. Every year we organize a bike ride and fundraiser in honor of our friends, family and community and to help offset the emotional and monetary expenses of those currently residing in the Bighorn basin area who are afflicted with cancer. We ride to show solidarity in the suffering that goes with physical exertion and cancer. We raise money in order to give all cancer care providers fuel and grocery cards to distribute to their patients in need. Every year we distribute approximately $30 to $35 thousand dollars to cancer patients in Park County, Bighorn County, Washakie County and Hot Springs County. We live by our logo and hold strong to the fact that “People Everywhere are Kind and Sharing”, PEAKS to Conga. Our vision is to continue the momentum of what we have done the last 14 years of service to our community. We hope to see PEAKS to Conga continue to be a ride about community. It is not just a ride. It is a service and a testimony to the power of communities taking care of their own.
