Countdown to the Crossing : Calvi - Monaco Water Bike Challenge

MONACO WATER BIKE CHALLENGE

This Saturday 12th September, team Serenity and team Notorious will depart together on water bikes from Calvi Harbor in Corsica, intending to reach the Principality of Monaco the next day in a 180kms water bike race for charity. This unique challenge aims to raise awareness about drowning prevention and water safety. H.S.H. Princess Charlene and Conor McGregor (Irish retired professional mixed martial artist and boxer) held a training session in preparation for The Crossing : Calvi – Monaco Water Bike Challenge.

The race will oppose team Serenity, led by H.S.H. Princess Charlene, to team Notorious, led by Mr. Gareth Wittstock, General Secretary of the Princess Charlene of Monaco Foundation. The start is scheduled on Saturday, September 12th at 2 pm at the Quai d’Honneur of the port of Calvi. Departure time is subject to change depending on weather conditions. In relay, the members of each team will be able to switch as often as they wish, commencing at 20 minutes after departure.

The Princess Charlene Of Monaco Foundation

“Being passionate about sport is an amazing gift if one considers the values that come with it. Sport has the ability to change and save lives, to accomplish great destiny and empower people. It can have an impact on an individual, a family, a community, as well as an entire nation. Today we might know gifted children who would have the ability to become a sporting icon, but do not have sufficient means or facilities to even train properly. So it has become a priority for me to support and transmit these sporting values that I share with my husband, Prince Albert II of Monaco, to the next generation of young athletes. Some of the present and future projects for my Foundation are underlining the importance and reinforcing the awareness of water safety. Too many children die from drowning every year because they don’t know how to swim yet just a few swimming lessons could save their lives and help them to feel more comfortable and confident in the water. My foundation is orientated towards these children who can become responsible adults if we show them the way through the values of sport and solidarity; so together, we can help these young athletes to succeed.” HSH Princess Charlene of Monaco.
