Mark and Patrick head back to the offices of the National MS Society to talk with Tim Church, HSE Director for Statoil and captain of their BP MS150 cycling team and Barron Lozano, head of the Ride Marshall Program with the BP MS150.
Statoil’s commitment to safety extends far beyond the job site; they sponsor the Ride Marshall Program for the BP MS150 and has won the BP MS150 Gold Safety Award for four straight years. They do this with a team made up of not only Statoil employees but friends and family members, some of whom don’t even work in the oil and gas industry.
The 33rd Annual BP MS 150 begins on Saturday, April 29 from three start line locations in the Houston area, and finishes in front of the Bob Bullock Museum near the State Capitol in Austin on Sunday, April 30, following an overnight celebration in La Grange. The ride will connect an estimated 11,000 riders, in addition to thousands of volunteers, sponsors, donors and supporters, as they embark on a shared journey to drive awareness and raise $16 million.
The BP MS 150 is a fundraising event, not a race, and therefore is attractive for novice and experienced cyclists. If you would like to know more or make a tax-deductible donation to the National MS Society, you can do so at bpms150.net.
