MCBT 2016 – Biggest Bike Tour Yet Hits Slovenia/Italy this May

It’s that time of year again! Wheels are pumped, chains are oiled, riders are fit and ready to go…

From May 17-19, over 90 cyclists and volunteers will be travelling 420km in 3 days across Slovenia and Italy. The bike tour will arrive at the Indica Sativa Trade expo in Bologna on Friday May 20th, where celebrations will begin.

Why celebrations? Because this year will see the bike tour reach its financial target to fund independent clinical trials which will use cannabinoids to treat cancer patients. This year’s tour has already raised 100,000€ in sponsorship from companies and individuals.   

The MCBT has been an incredible 5 year journey, which began with 2 riders in 2012. Riders in the 2016 tour are coming from all over Europe, North and South America. Follow the tour’s progress on the MCBT Facebook page

MCBT 2016 – Destination and Tour Dates Announcement

We have some great news!  We would like to announce that the 2016 Medical Cannabis Bike Tour will take place from Tuesday May 17th – Thursday May 19th (420km, 3 days).

Another year, another part of the world! This time we start in  Lljubljana (Slovenia) and finish in Bologna (Italy).

This year will be the biggest bike tour yet! Already cyclists and sponsors are signing up to join us in what will be a very special year.

In 2016 we will have enough money raised to conduct clinical trials on human patients in Spain, to test the research of the Complutense University scientists into the effectiveness of cannabinoids as a cancer treatment.

We hope you will join us, either as a rider or sponsor on the tour, or as part of our worldwide army of MCBT supporters.

If you would like to ride with us, please  get in contact using our Rider Application Form. If you are a would like to donate towards our great cause, please get in contact using our sponsor form.

MCBT 2015 is now over

MCBT 2015 is now over. And what a sensational tour we had this year! Check out the videos here. It was the biggest tour yet and being in Holland – the land of the bicycle – it had a different vibe to our Spanish adventures.

Medical Cannabis Bike Tour 2015

MCBT 2015 is now over

MCBT 2015 is now over. And what a sensational tour we had this year! It was the biggest tour yet and being in Holland – the land of the bicycle – it had a different vibe to our Spanish adventures.

The climbs weren’t so extreme (and yes, we did manage to find some Dutch hills!) but the long stretches of flat and traffic free cycle paths gave us excellent terrain for sprinting  and it was a fast course this year. There were also the delights of Amsterdam waiting for us at the end!

Thanks to the generosity of our sponsors, we have raised €100,000 from MCBT 2015. But the challenge continues… We need to raise another €85,000 to fund our clinical trial program so please help us by donating  to our crowd funding campaign www.walacea.com/cannabisandcancer

We are already planning MCBT 2016…. In the meantime, get the latest news from our Facebook page and on Twitter.

Keep on pedalling!
