This annual cycling event started earlier this year in  January 2016 , and the next edition is slated for early 2017.

  1. How can my contribution of Rs 300 help?

Each ticket to this adventure, with a purpose, has a rupee amount attached to it.A portion of this collection will go towards the expenses of the tour, and the other portion will be used to light up homes in remotest areas of Arunachal Pradesh. With Rs 300, you can sponsor a KM of this ride, bringing the hope of an electrified future to a kid in India. Of course, you can sponsor as many kilometers as you like. In the end, when 1 rider registers and completes the challenge, 10 homes get funded for lighting. A little contribution of Rs 300 goes a long long way!
