Race against Cancer 2012 at Michaelskreuz
The charity bike tour Race against Cancer will take place this year on August 25 at Michaelskreuz in the canton of Lucerne. This year, the proceeds will go to the relief fund for cancer patients, among other things.
In addition to celebrities such as Ariella Kaeslin, Franco Marvulli, Tanja Frieden and Beat Zberg, around 300 amateur cyclists will be taking part, either as those directly affected, as relatives or in memory of the deceased. Race against Cancer is a charity event of the sporting kind: you cycle a challenging circuit and collect "sponsorship" money, all of which goes to Cancer League projects. This year, the proceeds will go towards the relief fund for cancer patients and research into the long-term effects of childhood cancer. Over the past two years, more than half a million francs have been raised.
