ROVINJ_CyclingJoyDays_2014a.jpgSri Chinmoy Cycling Challenge grew out of the 27-Hour Cycling Relay that is happening every August since 2008 in Zurich, Switzerland. In 2011 we realized that there are many people who live too far and cannot come to Zurich with their bicycles to participate. Therefore it was decided that in 2012 additional participants will be allowed to cycle in other places during the 27 hours of the event and their cycled distances will be added to that of the participants in Zurich. We also had the first global Week of Cycling in Otober 2012.

In April 2013 we organized for the first time a Month of Cycling and in May/June 2014 we dared a 50-Day Cycling Challenge. Since 2015 the global Month of Cycling always happens in June.

There are nowadays two global events under the umbrella of Sri Chinmoy Cycling Challenge: June - the Month of Cycling and the 27-Hour Cycling Relay (usually at the beginning of August).

In the years behind us the number of participants and the distances have constantly increased. Every year more and more cyclists are joining and having fun cycling together all around the globe. In Sri Chinmoy's spirit of continuous self-transcendence, we invite you to participate this year and transcend your previous results. Be in your heart, enjoy your cycling!
