On Sunday 5 June 2016, Uphill Challenge ASBL, together with ACC Contern, is organising a cycling event in support of a charity; all the benefits of the 2016 event will go to “Make a Wish Luxembourg”.
The goal of the event is to complete a 236m climb at Charly’s Gare Hostert (Niederanven) as fast and as far as possible within 3 hours and to raise money for granting the wishes of children (between 3 and 18 yrs old) living with life-threatening illness’.
The course is approx. 1 km long (uphill 236m). Over this distance, participants climb 30m in height. The maximum slope is 14.5%.
Registration is free, participation either as an individual or as a relay team (maximum 5 riders). All participants (both individual and team members) are expected to commit themselves to raising sponsorship funds for their efforts. Registration is now open for relay teams and individuals, with supporters also welcome on the day to watch to the cyclists.
Before and after the event those attending may also test one of the brand new e-bikes presented by Trisport and Asport. During the event there will be food (prepared by
the BBQ champion of Luxembourg), drinks and children's entertainment.
