Team Rowland was started in 2017 after Mike Rowland was diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease. Shortly after his diagnosis, his family and an army of supporters quickly rallied around him and got involved with the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s Disease Research by attending the Tour de Fox Blue Ridge bike event in Greenville, South Carolina.

Since 2017, Team Rowland and their supporters have ridden thousands of miles and raised over $650,000 for research and to improve the quality of life for Parkinson’s patients in Alabama.
