Allwyn is delighted to declare its ongoing backing of the Peace Race for a consecutive year. This esteemed cycling competition, founded in 1948 as an emblem of harmony and reconciliation in post-war Europe, will witness squads from 22 countries vying for the sought-after championship.
As a proud supporter, Allwyn, the administrator of the UK National Lottery, acknowledges the Peace Race’s lasting heritage as a symbol of optimism and fellowship. Regarded as a testing ground for future luminaries of cycling, the race is an integral part of the prestigious Nations Cup series for young athletes under 23.
This year’s event, occurring in the Czech Republic from May 30th to June 2nd, guarantees to be an exciting spectacle. Riders will traverse a grueling 468-kilometer route, confronting a demanding 7,981 meters of total ascent.
Allwyn is dedicated to utilizing its international stage to promote the Peace Race’s message of integration and fair play. Pavel Turek, Allwyn’s Chief Global Brand, Corporate Communication and CSR Officer, highlighted the importance of the occasion, remarking, “The Peace Race surpasses mere rivalry; it embodies a vision for tomorrow. It acts as a path to the zenith of global cycling, demonstrating the transformative influence of athletics.”
Allwyns continued collaboration with the Peace Race demonstrates our dedication to harmony and inclusivity. We are not merely backing a competition; we are nurturing a sense of camaraderie, cooperation, and collective achievement. It’s a legacy we are honored to maintain.”
Leopold König, the Peace Race’s Race Director, remarked: “Annually, we observe extraordinary aptitude from these young athletes, but the Peace Race signifies much more than just rivalry. It’s an intercultural dialogue, uniting riders from varied heritages and political structures to establish bonds that surpass geographical limits.”
“We anticipate a remarkable presence from onlookers who will have the opportunity to witness some of the planet’s finest young cyclists compete. It’s going to be memorable. We’ve crafted a demanding course this year, and I, personally, am eager to watch the future luminaries of cycling excel.”
It’s noteworthy that Allwyn’s commitment to connecting individuals stretches beyond the realm of cycling. Just last month, they exhibited their backing for another worthy endeavor as a worldwide partner for the 2024 Wings for Life World Run, a philanthropic event that genuinely embodies the essence of global togetherness.
