Foundation supports A LA PAR in Spain

‘A LA PAR’ is a Spanish charity that supports people with intellectual disabilities so that they can participate in society.

With the sponsorship support of Columbia Threadneedle, A LA PAR is bringing its members together with professional sports people so that they can participate in the Tanspyr mountain bike race.

The race is a seven day event, running from 9 – 15 June, and consists of seven stages totaling around 800km and above 20,000m of elevation ascent, representing a daily average of over 110km and about 2,600m of climbing.

 Transpyr is a demanding challenge and is considered one of the best mountain bike adventures globally. The route immerses riders in the scenery and culture of the Pyrenees, from the southern slopes of the Pyrenees, crossing and merging Catalonia Pyrenees, Aragón, Navarra and Euskadi.
