Join Macmillan for this fantastic and tough challenge and venture where the tourists rarely go, while helping to improve the lives of people affected by cancer.

Traditional and modern, remote rural villages and booming cities – cycle through China and you'll get a unique insight into a land of contrasts and surprises. Our unique bike ride will take you into the heart of this fascinating country and give you a taste of China that few westerners ever experience.

Cycle 680 challenging kilometers through one of the world's most enigmatic countries on your journey from a spectacular section of the Great Wall to the start of the Silk Road, including a visit to the breathtaking Terracotta Warriors.

Here at Macmillan we understand what it takes to train for and take on such a challenge. That's why we'll be there for you from the start with a dedicated overseas challenge team providing both fundraising and training advice.  We'll prepare you for the challenge with our newsletters and briefing meeting, support you throughout the 11 day challenge and be on hand to celebrate with you as you conquer this epic achievement.

By joining Macmillan, you will be helping us to provide immediate practical, emotional, medical and financial support that will change the lives of people living with cancer in the UK today. The challenge will be tough at times but you'll return with a real sense of pride in your achievement and you'll have found yourself 60 new friends!

'For a complete non-cyclist 10 months ago I feel an immense sense of achievement. I feel privileged to have shared the company of so many spirited people who put others before themselves for such a great cause. The energy and goodwill generated by those who have taken part will be something I will remember for a very long time." Belinda, Macmillan Challenge participant 2007
