DocGo Sponsors 21st Annual National EMS Memorial Bicycle Ride
This event supports the EMS community and honors those who have been killed or injured in the line of duty
NEW YORK, July 28, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Ambulnz, Inc., d/b/a DocGo, a leading provider of last-mile telehealth and integrated medical mobility services that has entered into an agreement to merge with Motion Acquisition Corp. (Nasdaq: MOTN) will be a major sponsor of The National EMS Memorial Bike Ride (NEMSMBR).
The non-profit honors emergency medical services personnel and celebrates the lives of those who serve every day. This year will be the organization's 21st Ride. A staunch supporter of the emergency medical services community, DocGo's sponsorship will help raise money for fallen EMS workers as the riders, or "Muddy Angels," take on up to 100 miles of road each day.
"Last year, the world saw the sacrifices frontline workers make in this line of work," President of DocGo, Anthony Capone said. "DocGo honors those sacrifices by supporting causes like this, and providing our own first responders with added benefits such as our Employee Equity Incentive Plan and upskill training to enrich their career development. They go above and beyond to keep the public safe, so we go above and beyond to thank them."
All events will take place during the week of September 19th. Muddy Angels riding the East Coast route will begin their seven-day journey in Boston and make various stops in Connecticut, New York, Pennsylvania, and Maryland before finishing in Washington D.C.
The nationwide event offers five individual bicycle routes which span 16 states. An option to participate virtually was added last year due to route cancellations and will be available again this year.
