Hey!
Welcome to BénéCycling, a project where I will cycle from Antwerp to Switzerland, together with my brothers, in order to raise money for charity. We are doing this as a tribute to our sister, Bénédicte, who died of a very aggressive type of kidney cancer at the age of 48, a mere 2 months after being diagnosed. With this cycling project we want to raise money for a charity dedicated to cancer research. The charity is ‘Kom op tegen kanker’ – freely translated this means ‘stand up against cancer’. Our bicycle tour starts off in Antwerp, where we live, and brings us to Rolle in Switzerland, where Bénédicte used to live – symbolically bridging the distance between our lives.
