THE NICOLA WERNER CHALLENGE

The Nicola Werner Challenge (NWC) aims to bring together cyclists on different venues for a challenging ride in order to raise awareness and funds for the fight against cancer.  

​

Spend the day as Nicola Werner would have, taking on your challenge, living the moment, forging friendships and enjoying the natural scenery.

​

Dedicate the day to a close friend or family member who has suffered or is suffering a serious illness like cancer.

​

Make a contribution to cancer research in support of research projects at Institute Gustave Roussy (Paris) and the German Cancer Research Center (Heidelberg) in the name of the NWC.

​

Ed. N° 5 will be different from previous editions; the Corona Pandemic is more trigger than cause for progress:

​

NWC rides on September 12 in Paris and locally in Basel, Berlin, Bochum, Black Forest, Seattle connected via Zoom.
