The Trek Across Maine fundraising bike ride will be a virtual event again this year because of the coronavirus pandemic. The event, an annual fundraiser for the American Lung Association now in its 37th year, had been scheduled for June 18-20. Last year’s ride was also held virtually, with 1,200 cyclists raising $550,000 for health education, advocacy and lung research. The Trek Across Maine is the largest fundraiser in the country for the American Lung Association.
