Tour the Grand Parade!
We all know what Tour de France is. Its history began in 1903 and continues with two breaks until today. Did you know that the race is happening right now?
People from all over the world compete in a cycling race that is almost 3,500 km long. To celebrate this wonderful time, we decided to organise a series of activities related to cycling. Let us share with you more about the first one. As a betting company with a strong sporty spirit in DNA, we couldn't miss the opportunity and organised our own bike race - Tour the Grand Parade!
It's something quite challenging, but for sure achievable! As a company, we took up the challenge of cycling 3500 km. As Tour de France distance is approximately 3.500 km long, we wanted to join the tour and ride that distance too! But not individually, we are doing it together - so if each of us (approx. 400 people) rides just 9 km by bike, we will achieve that goal.
Okay - so why actually we do that?
Not only because it brings a lot of fun and integrates people, but also for a good cause. All kilometres will be transferred to Rower Pomaga (Bike Helps) initiative, which supports childcare homes. For every 1 million kilometres they collect, they buy and donate a bike to children in need. It is a combination of ecological action (choosing a bike over other means of transport) with the charity. Moreover, if we manage to achieve our goal, Grand Parade will donate additional 3,500 PLN to this noble cause as well.
How does it sound to you? Are you joining us? :)
Also - would you believe that so far we drove 1,636.5 km together? We are almost halfway there, and there are still 3 weeks left. With such an amazing team 3500k sound like a piece of cake.
Keep fingers crossed for Grand Parade Sports Team and see you on the road!
