The Tuscany Italy Breast Cancer Walk or Ride is a 7-day event with 5-days of walking or riding through Tuscany Italy. Walkers, riders, and Crewmembers will gather in the small town of Buonconvento, easily reachable from Rome by train. From there you will be transferred to our first night’s Inn where your adventure will begin. Our Breast Cancer beneficiary for the event is Breast Cancer Network or Strength, or you can designate an alternate beneficiary. All designated beneficiaries must be a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization as designated by the IRS. You can choose your own beneficiary or ours, in either case your donations will be divided 80/20, 80% to your designated beneficiary and 20% to For A Cause.
2010 will mark the third Italy Breast Cancer Walk and our first combined walking and riding event. Also for the third year we will be collaborating with the premier walking organizer in Italy, Girosole Walking Tours. Girosole Walking Tours has been with us since the beginning and we would not be able to return year after year without them. So it is with heart felt thanks that we thank Girosle Walking Tours and founder/owner Peter Crawford.
The Italy Breast Cancer Walk or Ride is limited to 24 participants, 20 Walkers / Riders and 4 Crewmembers. Every day you will Walk or Ride to exciting and medieval towns and every night you will experience home cooked Italian meals before you retire to your room and sleep on comfortable beds, that’s right no tents! Each day’s Walking or Riding will be challenging, you will face many steep graded hills and walk an average of 10-miles a day or ride 50-miles a day and through it all you will assist your fellow Walkers, Riders and maybe even help a Crewmember so everyone arrives at the day’s destination safely.
