Be part of a wonderful cycling adventure this summer. You will cycle 1000km over nine days across some of Poland's most beautiful countryside. It's a great challenge, but within the reach of any amateur cyclist. You will be fully supported by a friendly and enthusiastic event team, and a support vehicle. And remember, because the ride is organised entirely by experienced volunteers every penny you raise goes direct to supporting adults and children with terminal illnesses and their families; your participation fee covers our costs.
We have only a few spaces left on this year's ride, so register today!
