In addition to our in-person treks, it is now possible to become part of the Charles-Bruneau family by registering for the at a distance participation, which allows you to ride independently.
During the week of the Tour, join the 800 cyclists who will be riding towards a cancer-free future for children.

Minimum fundraising
By registering for at the distance participation, you commit to raising a minimum of $500 before July 8, 2022. The Charles-Bruneau Foundation team is there to help you reach your goal by offering you the tools and resources you need to create an online fundraising campaign.

Twinning of the heart
Each cyclist will be paired with a young person who will be featured on your personal page. You will receive a button with his or her image, so that he or she can accompany you during your challenge and will have the opportunity to meet him or her virtually, on the Foundation's social media, as well as during a meeting specific to the cyclist of the at a distance participation, before the event.
If you are riding for a specific child, you can request to be paired with that child.

Team IGA Abitibi 2021: an example to follow!
In July 2021, Gilles Ferland, Jacques Morin and Michel Laverdure represented the IGA banner in Val-d'Or by registering for the Tour CIBC Charles-Bruneau at a distance. With their children, they took up a symbolic challenge by completing a distance of approximately 100 km by bike. They cycled from Amos to Val d'Or, making a stop along the way at the IGA in Malartic. The spouses also got involved and provided support on the road with vehicles. On their way, they had the opportunity to meet a local child who was diagnosed with cancer.
Testimonials
"Signing up for the at a distance ride added five cyclists to the team, not all of whom knew about the CBF. It shows that people in the region also support the Foundation and benefit from its treatments. Gilles Ferland
