Fran and Jim Bassett will lead a five-day, 285-mile bike ride Monday from Ortonville to Welch Village, Minn., to raise funds for multiple sclerosis research. They're expecting 1,200 to 1,500 participants.
The Bassetts will offer ice cream treats with a minimum donation of $1 to support Bike MS from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Wednesday, Thursday and Friday at 13th Avenue South and South Washington Street in Grand Forks.
