The group made a stop on its 70-day journey Monday at the Nebraska Medical Center.
Team Portland is covering 4,000 miles on their bikes to raise awareness and bring cheer to those affected by cancer.
"It's amazing the support that people give us," cancer patient Olga Kanne said. "People that don't even know you, like these young beautiful faces. They really brighten your heart and make your road a little easier."
The team brought treats and care kits with them.
Team Portland's journey began in Baltimore on May 31, and will end in Portland on Aug. 8.
