PHOENIX CYCLENATION RETURNS TO ESTRELLA IN 2027, WITH TIM BRISLIN BACK AS EVENT CHAIR

Estrella will once again serve as the backdrop for one of the Valley’s premier wellness and philanthropic events when Phoenix CycleNation returns to the award-winning master-planned community on Saturday, Feb. 27, 2027.

Set against the scenic shores of North Lake, the event will bring together corporate teams, community members and supporters from across Metro Phoenix to raise funds and awareness for stroke prevention, research and education through the American Stroke Association. Returning to lead the effort is Tim Brislin, President and CEO of Harvard Investments, who will serve as Chair of the 2027 Phoenix CycleNation campaign.

As local platform sponsor, Estrella continues its commitment to creating opportunities that inspire connection, healthy living and community impact. The annual event reflects many of the values that define life at Estrella, where wellness, outdoor recreation and service go hand in hand.

Participants will pedal with purpose on stationary bikes while raising critical funds to support lifesaving research and programs. More than a fitness challenge, CycleNation brings people together around a common goal: helping stop the cycle of stroke and improving brain and heart health for future generations.

“By hosting Phoenix CycleNation, Estrella reinforces its commitment to wellness, connection and community-driven impact,” Brislin said. “We are creating a platform where philanthropy, lifestyle and celebration come together in a meaningful way.”

Stroke remains the fourth leading cause of death in the U.S. and the leading cause of long-term disability among older adults. Nearly 800,000 Americans experience a stroke each year, yet research shows up to 80 percent may be preventable.

Companies, organizations and individuals interested in supporting the 2027 Phoenix CycleNation campaign are encouraged to get involved and join a movement dedicated to saving lives and building healthier communities.
