For the 13th year in a row, AXA Winterthur Switzerland was the main sponsor for the "Love Ride" on May, one of the most important events for motorcycling enthusiasts in Switzerland, and one of the biggest fund-raising events of its kind in Europe...

The organizers counted some 4,000 motorbikes and over 10,000 visitors! Among the ranks were also around 60 members of staff from AXA Winterthur Switzerland, whose 43 bikes led the way at the start of the event.

This event aims to raise funds for children with muscular dystrophy and individuals with disabilities, while introducing the concept of mobility to people who otherwise could only dream of the sense of freedom offered by two wheels.

In this way, the AXA Winterthur riders alone gave 18 out of the 202 disabled people present the opportunity to ride along with them in their sidecars or on their trikes as part of the Love Ride.
