How does it work?
Anybody willing to ride a bicycle (electric, reclining, handbike, etc …) can join. As a rider you join a given tour (or go solo), however it is not a race. After you have completed the tour, you will get a free meal. However, in order to raise money for a good cause, you must find sponsors for your ride. These can be documented in the registration form that you fill out. If you want to go the modern way, you can also register online and your sponsors can also enter their pledges online. This can be of advantage if you want to share your call for donations on your social media, the links are below. Information on each possible tour are also below.
Note: The tours are not signposted! There is a tour leader for each ride. This is not a race.
