Let's meet tomorrow 22-7 after 2400 km with trike from Holland for Parkinson2Beat!

Parkinson2Beat

Ruud Overes
Time of past OR future Camino
2018 : On my trike from Eersel (NL) to SdC (2400 km)
On June 28 I started from my hometown Eersel in Holland to start my bikeride through Europe.
The reason I do this is to raise money for the research against Parkinson's Disease.
I have Parkinson's Disease myself, but could not stand the idea doing nothing about it.
Therefor I made the plan for a sponsor biketour and I formed a team: Parkinson2Beat.
The total tour is 10000 km and my first planned stop will be Santiago de Compostela.
After 2400 km of riding along the Camino Route almost one month through Holland, Belgium, France and now Spain I will reach Santiago de Compostela on Sunday July 21.
I raised almost 10000 euro so far, but I hope this will be more soon and the next 2 months of my tour.
You can visit the action website www.parkinson2beat.com, where you can find more information about me and the campaign for Parkinson.
