If the passion for cars – driving and vrOOOooommmMMss can make you friends all around the world, sharing this passion can also make much much more.

So we called our non-profit organization «  drive for miles® «  the pleasure is to drive, and driving a good cause whilst making miles.

The profit we gain through our driving pleasure goes entirely towards organizing events for children with cancer. This is how the event THE GOOD RIDE came along in 2017 and again in 2018 and probably every coming year. It is our way of giving back.

Driving a Porsche or another race car is a wicked thing
This is where Drive for Miles® started in 1997 … between two good friends, sportcars’ fanatics and on the Spa-Francorchamps Circuit!
Our present chair person (Annik) owned the exclusive rights of the Francorchamps Formula1 track during three years, improved her driving skills with José Close and they both created the JC-DIMAR-RACING-TEAM. Initially the non-profit organization was dedicated to teaching youngsters how to drive on a track, youngsters in the need for speed, the responsability of driving a car at high speed made them conscious and aware of the common dangers on the road. Unforgettable experiences. Skills everyone should attempt to enhance. 
When José resigned in 2010/11 as a chairman, Annik took over and renamed and registered DRIVE FOR MILES® (D4M), she changed the objective of the non-profit organization to driving miles for the benefit of children in need, children with cancer.

The first events were Porsche-only. 

 Existing routes elaborated for product launches of larger car brands by Annik and her corporate team (Pepper & Salt® Event Group 1994-2016), were used as a basis for the later Castle Rallies (chateaux-rallye©) and took Drive for Miles® on country-roads as far as France, Belgian Ardennes, Holland, Luxembourg and Germany: +700 km of roads and private residences meticulously taken down in roadbooks. Many hours of work, and research resulting in much fun, good spirit and outstanding events used by Porsche Clubs and their members.

2010 took Drive for Miles® into cities and the INPO (international non-profit organization) organized the first tunnel-rallye in Brussels, the Belgian capital with its 28 tunnels dating back to the 1958 World Exhibition, a perfect place to making many tunnels roar. Plus 30 Porsche’s attended this first event and a few other roadsters. Today this event has the name of Halleluja, is driven on a Sunday, and Porsche and more brands can attend. See our Events on this page and book online.

 As from 2017 Drive for Miles® travelled beyond the border, starting long-distance rides.

In May 2017 Annik (aka Annik Porsche-Singer on Facebook) decided to attend the Moscow Classic Rally, she left on May 9 and arrived in Moscow exactly 3 days later, despite the changes of climate and weather (from 19°C in Luxembourg to -2°C in Minsk) and returned in 3 days and drove exactly 4,200 miles. Drive for Miles® collected + one Euro per mile thanks to this fantastic ride. This was up-to-date, the only long-distance ride for a woman in a Porsche, should we file for entry in the  Guinness Book of Records?

In 2018, a convoy of cars lead by Annik left on July 30 to drive to St Petersburg and attend the « St Petersburg Nocturnal Rallye » organized on August 4 by the Porsche Classic Club of Russia, and returned August 9.

In 2019 we will continue the record of long-distance rides. On September 25 to be exact a convoy of Porsche and other branded cars will leave from Luxembourg to Stuttgart, later pass Austria and Italy, drive along coastal roads into Croatia – Bosnia Herzegovina – Montenegro – Albania and enter Greece, arrive Athens, our first long-distance destination on September 28. A ride of 1615 miles. September 29 we will take the cancer-kids of Elpida with us on a GoodRide. Monday 30 September we will continue for another 385 miles to Istanbul. And start the return trip on October 2, via Serbia or Italy (ferry), back in Stuttgart/Luxembourg by October 5. Local Porsche Clubs and their members will join us for parts of our route.

You can subscribe to this event, it is not a race. In the event section click Convoy2East, you have several options: you can join us for the ride Luxembourg-Athens, or Luxembourg-Athens-Istanbul, and return. Separately, you can join us for parts of our route and add to our mile-account.[/et_pb_text][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][/et_pb_section]

Why Cancer Kids?

The decision to focus on cancer-stricken children stems from a simple belief: every child deserves to experience moments of pure joy, regardless of their circumstances. A child fighting cancer is no different from any other child, except for the confines of a hospital room. By providing some of them who love to ride above anything else, with the thrill of a good ride, we aim to uplift their spirits and create healing memories. That is where and when our passion meets purpose, this is the difference we can make.

Our Long-Term Objective

Looking ahead, we aim to to establish an annual "Good Ride » Day internationally - one and the same date in every city with a children's hospital . To achieve this goal, we rely on the dedication of our local scouts—ambassadors who champion our cause and identify opportunities within their city and riding communities.

Supporting Our Cause

Funding our rides is a collective effort. Participants contribute through registration fees, while donations from private individuals and corporate sponsors cover additional expenses. We also offer membership options for those who wish to play a more active role in supporting our cause.

Our Events

Drive for Miles® offer two distinct types of rallies:

The Good Ride©:

This heartwarming event is the highlight of our calendar. Held in various European cities, including Brussels, Paris, Bonn and Baden-Baden, Milan and Athens, Vienna, Liechtenstein and Berlin a.o. "The Good Ride©" brings together drivers & their best car or bike, cancer-stricken children and their siblings in the drive of their choice for a day of unforgettable adventures. From the roar of engines to the wind in their hair, every moment is filled with joy and laughter.

Choosing Your Ride

Worst-case scenario

What can happen when taking a cancer kid aboard. Good question! Answer: nothing of what you feared, and so much more than you expected, because the kids we drive, chose to ride and they love it!

From passive supporters to active volunteers, there's a role for everyone at Drive for Miles®. Whether you're interested in joining our rides, becoming a scout, or simply making a difference, we welcome you with open arms.

Bekannt ist Drive for Miles® zunaechst in der Porsche Community.

Seit 2024/25 gesellen sich zu den Porsche weitere ansehnliche Vehikel, sowohl mit zwei wie mit vier Rädern = ein buntes Treiben, sehr zum Spass der brumm-brumm verrückten, klein wie grossen :) Kinder.

Warum grade krebskranke Kinder?

Die Entscheidung, sich auf krebskranke Kinder zu fokussieren, entspringt einer einfachen Überzeugung: jedes Kind verdient es, Momente purer Freude zu erleben, unabhängig von seinen Lebensumständen. Ein Kind, das gegen Krebs kämpft, unterscheidet sich nicht von jedem anderen Kind, abgesehen von der Enge eines Krankenhauszimmers und der Energie, die der Nervenkitzel einer guten Fahrt ihm oder ihr vermittelt. Bei krebskranken Kindern, die noch dazu für Auto-Motor-Öl empfänglich sind, heben diese Fahrten automatisch ihre Stimmung, die Kinder zehren lange von diesen Erinnerungen (man spricht von einem "soul-healing" Prozess).

Unsere Veranstaltungen Daher bietet Drive for Miles® hauptsächlich zwei Arten von Rallyes an:

"The Good Ride":

Diese herzerwärmende Veranstaltung ist der Höhepunkt in unserem Kalender. Der "Good Ride" findet in verschiedenen europäischen Städten statt, darunter waren Brüssel, Paris, Bonn, Luxembourg und Athen. Neuerdings kommen Wien, Mailand und Berlin, die Côte d'Azur und Reims hinzu.

Für den "Good Ride" holen unsere teilnehmenden Piloten ihr bestes & rares Stück aus der Garage. An Bord die krebskranken Kids, ihre Geschwister (Schattenkinder) und Eltern für einen Tag voller unvergesslicher Abenteuer. Vom Aufheulen der Motoren bis zum Wind in den Haaren ist jeder Moment von Freude und Lachen erfüllt.

Andere Rallyes & weitere Treffen:

Zusätzlich zu "The Good Ride" organisieren wir exklusive Fahrten und Automobil Happenings mit legendären Piloten (in 2024 waren Jürgen Barth & Willi Khausen, vor ihnen Walter Röhrl dabei). Zu diesen Events gehören die Convoy2East (10 driving-days zB Luxemburg-Athen findet im Oktober 2024 wieder statt), unsere gut besuchte Mont-Blanc-Rallye, die "Halleluja, wir fahren wieder" jede von ihnen hat zum Ziel einzigartige Gelegenheiten zu bieten, landschaftlich reizvolle Strecken zu erkunden und lebenslange Freundschaften zu schließen.

Optionen für die Mitgliedschaft

Von passiven Unterstützern bis hin zu aktiven Freiwilligen - bei Drive for Miles® gibt es für jeden eine Aufgabe. Ganz gleich, ob Sie an unseren Fahrten teilnehmen, ein Scout werden oder einfach etwas Positives bewirken möchten, wir heißen Sie mit offenen Armen willkommen.

Unser Ziel auf lange Sicht

Unsere Wunsch ist es, in jeder Stadt mit einem Kinderkrankenhaus einen „Good Ride“-Tag zu veranstalten, einmal im Jahr, an ein und demselben Tag. Um dieses Ziel zu erreichen, sind wir auf das Engagement unserer "Scouts" angewiesen - Botschafter, die sich für unsere Sache einsetzen und Möglichkeiten finden, in ihrer Heimatstadt mit dem "Good Ride" eine nennenswerte Veranstaltung zu organisieren, viel Freude und Spaß zu verbreiten.

Unterstützung für unsere Sache

Die Finanzierung unserer Fahrten ist eine gemeinsame Anstrengung. Die Teilnehmer tragen durch Anmeldegebühren bei, während Spenden von Privatpersonen und Sponsoring von Unternehmen zusätzliche Ausgaben decken. Wir bieten auch die Möglichkeit einer Mitgliedschaft für diejenigen, die eine aktivere Rolle bei der Unterstützung unserer Sache übernehmen möchten.

Welches Vehikel darf es sein?

Ganz gleich, ob Sie sich hinter das Steuer eines schnittigen Sportwagens setzen oder auf einem leistungsstarken Motorrad unterwegs sind, die Wahl Ihres Fahrzeugs kann für ein Kind einen großen Unterschied machen. Wir von Drive for Miles® glauben an die Energie-geladene Kraft einer guten Fahrt und laden Sie ein, ein Teil davon zu sein. Durch Ihre Ausstrahlung und Freude diesem Kind etwas zu bieten, und nicht zuletzt durch das tolle Auto oder Motorrad, das sie auswählen, geben sie dem Kind (und auch sich) die tollste Geschichte mit auf den Weg

Britta Lutz

Vizepräsidentin seit 2014

Vor einem Jahrzehnt kam ich als Vizepräsidentin zu Drive for Miles®, angezogen von der gemeinsamen Liebe zum Autofahren und dem Wunsch, etwas zu bewegen. Seitdem hatte ich die Ehre, „The Good Ride“ in Stuttgart zu organisieren – eine Veranstaltung, die alles verkörpert, wofür wir stehen.Und Kirsche auf unserem Kuchen war Walter Röhrl!

 

Die Freude am Fahren ist nicht nur für Erwachsene reserviert – sie ist etwas, das wir mit unseren Kindern teilen und ein Erbe von Leidenschaft und Begeisterung weitergeben. Mit Drive for Miles® führen wir nicht nur aufregende Fahrten durch, sondern fördern auch die Gesundheit und das Glück unserer Teilnehmer.

 

Gemeinsam fahren wir nicht nur, wir fahren in eine bessere Zukunft, eine Meile nach der anderen (und für die Kleinen).

Vice-President since 2014
A decade ago, I joined Drive for Miles® as Vice President, drawn by a shared love for driving and a desire to make a difference. Since then, I’ve had the honor of organizing “The Good Ride” in Stuttgart—an event that epitomizes everything we stand for. Also, the moto-taxi-ride through Paris with 80 wheelers, a vrooming convoy down the Champs Elysées will remain in my memory for ever.

The traffic situation and safety issues linked to a convoy of so many cars & bikes were very challenging. Every time the care with which we secured the operations and our foresight of potential practical issues, convinced the local police to team up and helped us to make it happen.

The joy of riding isn’t just reserved for adults—it’s something we share with our children, I have passed down to my boys (and girls) this legacy of passion and enthusiasm. Through Drive for Miles®, together, we’re not just driving—we’re driving towards a brighter future, one mile at a time.

Für mich ist Drive for Miles® mehr als nur eine Leidenschaft – es ist eine Familie. Als langjähriges Mitglied der Porsche-Familie habe ich die auf der offenen Straße geknüpften Bande immer sehr geschätzt. Durch Drive for Miles® hatte ich das Privileg, diese Familie zu erweitern und Enthusiasten aus allen Gesellschaftsschichten in die Gemeinschaft aufzunehmen.

 

Von lebhaften Diskussionen über Traumautos bis hin zu unvergesslichen Roadtrips durch Europa – jeder Moment mit Drive for Miles® ist ein Beweis für die Kraft der Freundschaft und der gemeinsamen Leidenschaft. Und so wie unsere Gemeinschaft weiterwächst, so wächst auch mein Gefühl des Staunens und der Aufregung.

Guy Flener

Chairman Luxembourg since 2018
For me, Drive for Miles® is more than just a passion—it’s a family. As a long-standing member of the Porsche community and owner of rides from 1986-2024, I’ve always cherished the bonds forged on the open road. Through Drive for Miles®, I’ve had the privilege of expanding that family, welcoming enthusiasts from all walks of life into the fold.

From spirited discussions about dream cars to unforgettable road trips across Europe, every moment with Drive for Miles® is a testament to the power of friendship and shared passion. And as our community continues to grow, so too does my sense of wonder and excitement of what is new around the next curve.

Stellen Sie sich das Hochgefühl vor, wenn Sie Ihr Motorrad, Ihren Lieblingswagen nach einem langen Winterschlaf aufwecken, den Zündschlüssel einstecken und spüren, wie der Motor zum Leben erwacht. Dieses Gefühl der puren Freude ist es, was unsere Leidenschaft bei Drive for Miles® antreibt. Seit unserer Gründung im Jahr 1997 haben wir es uns zur Aufgabe gemacht, diese Leidenschaft mit anderen Enthusiasten zu teilen, dauerhafte Verbindungen zu knüpfen und – was am wichtigsten ist – etwas Gutes mit unseren Meilen zu bewirken.

 

Meine Reise begann mit der Liebe zum Autofahren – endlose Kilometer auf offener Straße, aufregende Kurven und die Kameradschaft unter Gleichgesinnten. Aber es war eine zufällige Begegnung mit einem bemerkenswerten Jungen, die mich wirklich dazu inspirierte, zielgerichtet zu fahren.

 

Dieser Junge, der trotz seiner Krankheit eine glühende Leidenschaft für Autos hegt, wurde zum Katalysator für unsere Mission. Durch seinen unerschütterlichen Geist und seinen ansteckenden Enthusiasmus zeigte er uns die unglaubliche Kraftwiedergabe einer “guten Fahrt” als  Co-Pilot. Seitdem wissen wir,  dass unsere Hobby Nr 1 “Autofahren/ Autorennen” eine Quelle der Freude sprich eine heilende Energie sein kann.

 

Angetrieben von dieser Erkenntnis machten wir uns auf den Weg, um durch unsere Kilometer und Events, Spenden zu sammeln und für den guten Zweck  zu fahren. Ob es sich um einen Tagesausflug oder eine zehntägige Reise handelt, jeder Kilometer, den wir zurücklegen, ist eine Gelegenheit, Freude zu verbreiten und etwas zu bewirken.

Picture the exhilaration of waking up your ride after a long hibernation—inserting the ignition key, feeling the engine rumble to life. That sensation of pure joy is what fuels our passion at Drive for Miles®. Since our inception in 1997, we’ve been dedicated to sharing that passion with fellow enthusiasts, forging lasting connections, and, most importantly, making a difference.

Our journey began with a shared love for driving—endless miles of open road, exhilarating twists and turns, and the camaraderie of fellow enthusiasts. But it was a chance encounter with a remarkable young boy that truly inspired us to drive with purpose.

This young boy, with a fervent passion for cars despite his battles with cancer, became the catalyst for our mission. Through his unwavering spirit and infectious enthusiasm, he showed us the transformative power of a good ride. In that moment, we knew that driving wasn’t just a hobby—it was a source of joy and healing.

Driven by this revelation, we embarked on a mission to drive miles and drive with purpose. Whether it’s a day trip or a ten-day journey, every mile we travel is an opportunity to spread optimism and make a difference.
