On June 12th and 13th, 2026, the Suzannah Smiles Foundation will be hosting its 16th annual road cycling event, the Spina Bifida 250 (SB250). This event is a 250-mile bicycle ride from Edinburg to San Antonio in the heat of the Texas summer.
The SB250 continues to grow as a premier cycling event in Texas. In the last 15 years, the SB250 has raised over $650,000 to help Texas children and families impacted by spina bifida. All proceeds of the event are donated directly to families impacted by spina bifida through scholarships and grants as well as to Spina Bifida Texas (SBTX). SBTX is often the first resource for families after a spina bifida diagnosis. The SB250 generates a sizable portion of SBTX’s operational capital for the year. With your help, the 15th edition of the SB250 will allow us to serve more families across Texas.
About Suzannah Smiles: Suzannah Smiles’ mission is to spread awareness of spina bifida and to raise funds to support programs that provide services for those affected, so that we can empower them to live a barrier-free life and reach their fullest potential.
About spina bifida: It is estimated that spina bifida affects two out of every 1,000 births in Texas, twice the national average. Spina bifida is a birth defect that occurs when the lower end of the spinal cord does not form properly in the developing baby. Paralysis, loss of bowel and/or bladder control, brain damage and learning disabilities are among the many issues associated with this complex disability. According to the Center for Disease Control (CDC), if every woman of childbearing age (15-44) would take a daily vitamin containing 400mcg of folic acid, the incidences of spina bifida would be reduced by 70%.
About the SB250 Ride: The SB250 bicycle ride starts in Edinburg, TX on June 12th and ends in San Antonio, TX on June 13th. Participants will be cycling up to 260 miles over two days through the grueling South Texas heat to raise funds through sponsorships and donations. All profits will go directly to families impacted by spina bifida and to Spina Bifida Texas. Information can be found at: https://www.suzannahsmiles.org/ or by contacting Tommy Smith, Executive Director of Suzannah Smiles at (281) 408-5858, or [email protected].
Our goal for 2026 is to raise $150,000.00. Please consider supporting our effort to assist Texas families living with spina bifida by sponsoring, volunteering, and/or participating in the event.
