A bike ride for a good cause
Written by Manuela Schwarz on 21 June 2023
The town of Gramatneusiedl recently organised a charity cycle ride in support of research into the rare disease MECP2 duplication syndrome. Around 150 cyclists took part.
Alongside the fire brigade festival, Gramatneusiedl recently organised a charity cycle ride for a good cause, starting and finishing in the fire station's main square. Many of the cyclists enjoyed the fire brigade's home-made delicacies afterwards.
The charity cycle ride was organised by the town of Gramatneusiedl. The association supports children suffering from MECP2 duplication syndrome, a rare and progressive neurological disease from which Philipp Molnar from Gramatneusiedl suffers. His father, Gerald Molnar, head of the association, and a couple of friends, Caroline and David Covini, both involved in research, also have a son named Matteo who suffers from MECP2 duplication syndrome. Together, they are trying to advance research and improve the quality of life of affected children through donations, such as those collected during the charity cycle ride, in which around 150 cyclists took part.
