For the second year in a row, citizenMovement is embarking on a fundraising cycling challenge and anyone can participate. This year, the route goes from Paris to Rotterdam. The funds will be given to their charity partner, World Bicycle Relief, who will donate 2.500 bicycles to young students in Sub-Saharan Africa.

A cycling challenge for you. A life-changing gift for children in Zambia

Bike from Paris to Rotterdam to test your pedal power while doing a good deed. It’s a personal test that pushes the limits of your endurance, a point of pride on your bucket list and a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to bike along with celebrity cyclists like:

• Steven Rooks (winner of the famous Tour de France polka dot jersey)
• Joop Zoetermelk (the first cyclist to start and finish Tour de France 16 times)
• Johan Museeuw (a world-renowned classics racer and World Champion in 1996)

No matter what reason you start, you’ll cross the finish line surrounded by new friends.

A challenge for a great cause

A bicycle makes a person more mobile, as anyone living in the Netherlands has experienced. For students in a rural community in a country like Zambia, having a bicycle can mean better school attendance, improved academic performance and a higher chance of staying in school.

• What: Fundraising cycling event
• Where: Paris to Rotterdam 
• When: June 27-30, 2019

Registration is open for the Paris to Rotterdam cycling challenge. Sign up and take on this once-in-a-lifetime bike event for a great cause.

citizenM's charity

The citizenMovement Foundation is the charity of the globally-renowned citizenM Hotels. As mobile citizens, we travel the world and reach far-flung destinations easily. Mobility is readily available and that makes us lucky, but is a luxury some cannot afford. Thinking about these challenges inspired citizenM Hotels to establish the charity citizenMovement, to give the gift of mobility.
