The Remax Alive 2017 Cycling Challenge participants have returned home following a whole week of pedalling to raise funds for charity. The 45 cyclists arrived earlier today after pedalling for eight hours every day from Copenhagen to Warsaw.

For the first time, the cycling challenge included a mountain-bike trail and a separate one for road bikes. The participants cycled no less than 1,200 kilometres.

Through previous challenges, Alive Foundation has raised over €335,000 for cancer research, and in collaboration with the Remax and Friends Foundation, it invested €80,000 in a recreation centre for children at the Sir Anthony Mamo Oncology Centre.
