together we ride

Get on. Drive off. Change something.

Together We Ride. Three words. One promise. On May 30, 2026, the road through seven municipalities will become the longest solidarity chain in Switzerland. On two wheels, with one goal: to show that no one has to be alone with cancer.

Since Ueli and Daniela's first ride on the Tremola, thousands have followed. On wet cobblestones, through rainbows, with headwinds and goosebumps. Over 5,000 riders. More than 100,000 kilometers. 4.2 million francs - raised by people who get on the saddle because sometimes words are not enough.

  

A new chapter begins on May 30, 2026. New routes through the Bernese Mittelland, start and finish at BERNEXPO. A day on which solidarity is not talked about, but ridden.

The question is not whether you are fit enough. The question is: who are you riding for?

How to drive

Six ways to be part of the movement

Whether alone or in a team, as a company or club, as a child or in a wheelchair - there is no wrong way to Ride for Life. Only yours.

You don't need anyone to set an example.

Single Rider

Are you someone who just gets on with it? Who doesn't wait for others to join in - but gets going? Then this is your format. Sign up, create your fundraising page and tell those around you why you're riding. Maybe for someone who is currently struggling. Maybe for someone you've lost. Maybe because standing still is not an option.

You decide which route you ride on site - take a look at the route profiles and let yourself be inspired. You go to the start alone. You never ride alone on the route.

Your name. Your mission. Your round.

Team of Friends

Do you have someone in your life who has - or has had - cancer? Or do you simply want to do something together that's bigger than the next brunch? Then put together a team. Give yourselves a name that tells your story. Challenge those around you.

And then experience what happens when friendship takes to the saddle and brings hope to the road. 

Out of the company. Into life.

Business Team

Is someone in your company affected by cancer? A colleague, an employee, a partner? Then don't wait for the right moment - set an example. Now is the time. Register a company team and show as a company: We are not looking away. We are going.

Sweat together, arrive together, achieve something together that is bigger than any quarterly target. The Ride for Life offers company packages with support and branding - for a day that gives your company an attitude that you won't find in any glossy brochure. But on the road.

Club life means standing up for each other when it counts.

Club Team

What makes your club special - the statutes or the team spirit? At Ride for Life, your club spirit becomes something that has an impact beyond the club.

 
Whether you're a sports club, service club or neighborhood association - sign up as a team and show your community, your region and yourself what club life means in the best sense of the word: being there when it counts. Not just on the pitch. Also on the track.

The smallest ones ride the biggest.

Kids4Kids

Do you know a child who loves cycling and has a big heart? Then Kids4Kids is just the thing. Children ride for children who are less well off - on a safe circuit directly on the Bernexpo site. With helmet, start number and a lot of pride.

 

The donations go to the allani children's hospice in Bern. And the memory of this day? They will last a lifetime.

No speed. No condition. Just you. Only you.

Heartbeat Ride

Are you there - no matter how? Whether on two wheels, on a handbike, in a wheelchair or accompanied on foot: The Heartbeat Ride on the Bernexpo site doesn't ask about ability, fitness or category. It only asks if your heart beats. And it does.

 

This round belongs to everyone who wants to show: I am here. I am part of it. Because solidarity knows no prerequisites. And you are part of it.

Your way to Ride for Life

It's that simple

Four steps. No paperwork. Just you, your bike, your team and a reason to ride.

Whether alone, with friends, as a company or club - you can be there in just a few minutes. This is how it works:

Log in

On the start list in two minutes

Register as a single rider or your team as a team captain. The participation fee is CHF 50 per rider. Children and young people up to the age of 16 ride for free.

Storytelling

Your story is your strongest argument

Why are you driving? For whom? Tell us on your personal fundraising page. A photo, a few sentences, a reason - that will do more than any appeal for donations.

Collect

Every lap, every meter counts

Share your page with family, friends and colleagues. Your donations will go to our partner organizations: Swiss Cancer Institute, Swiss Cancer Foundation and allani Children's Hospice Bern.

Drive off

May 30, 2026 - your day. Your day.

You decide which route you ride on site. From the heart lap on the area to the courage lap over 30 km through the Lindental - every lap is a sign. And every meter brings hope to the road.

Every year, 48,000 people in Switzerland are diagnosed with cancer. This turns their whole life upside down. Together with our partner organizations, we ensure that those affected and those around them are not left alone. 

The Ride for Life is committed to this important cause. The focus is on direct support for people with cancer and the joy of life.
