Arlington, Va. /ENDURANCE SPORTSWIRE/ – Arlington Sports, the promoting organization of the DC region’s premier cycling event, announces Amazon as the supporting sponsor for this year’s Corporate Challenge. The Corporate Challenge is one of the featured events during the weekend’s Armed Forces Cycling Classic, presented by The Boeing company.

The Amazon Corporate Challenge is open to organizations, small or large, and allows companies to participate in Saturday’s Challenge Ride as a group. This year’s Amazon Corporate Challenge will see twenty teams competing for the most total laps by a team or for the most laps by their top six riders. This friendly competition allows both small and large companies to vie for top honors. In addition to the riding challenge, we invite all of our participating challenge teams to raise money for their charity partner, TAPS (Tragedy Assistance Program for Survivors).
