Why Take the Challenge?
Tackling a long, gruelling day in the saddle of a Tour de France stage is tough. You’ll face punishing climbs, long hours, and true tests of endurance. But as you push through the fatigue, your effort carries a vital. You’re funding our helicopter in the air, our crew on the ground, and the second chance for a patient that needs urgent care. Enjoy the thrilling atmosphere building up through local towns and villages, knowing that every mile you ride makes a direct, lifesaving difference.
Without you, we can’t keep flying. Without you, we can’t save lives.
