‘Ride for Science’ kicks off with Giro d’Italia

Cyclists can raise money for the TAHMO initiative by logging their rides using the ‘Ride for Science’ iOS app, which is powered by Strava. In turn, METER will match dollar for distance. Every kilometer logged using the app through May 27 earns $1 to support weather stations in Africa.
