Saxo Bank Donates Signed Alberto Contador Tour de France 2013 Jersey

Hellerup, Denmark (ots/PRNewswire) -

Saxo Bank, the online trading and investment specialist, has
donated a Saxo-Tinkoff Tour de France 2013 cycling jersey (signed by
Alberto Contador) to Team Rynkeby, a Nordic charity cycling team.

Moreover, Saxo Bank has also asked the eight other riders on the
Saxo-Tinkoff Tour de France 2013 team to each sign their original
Tour de France 2013 jerseys.

All items of memorabilia will be auctioned on eBay until July 14th
2013.

Team Rynkeby cycles from Denmark to Paris every summer to raise
money for children with cancer and their families via the Child
Cancer Foundation: http://www.bornecancerfonden.dk. Funds raised from
the auction of jerseys will also be donated to the Foundation.

Marianne Benzon Nielsen, Director, the Child Cancer Foundation,
says:

"We strongly support this great initiative by Saxo Bank for the
Child Cancer Foundation. I am sure many people will be interested in
obtaining these jerseys from the celebrated Team Saxo-Tinkoff riders
and thereby helping children with cancer and their families."

Saxocycling.com [http://www.saxocycling.com ] is host to 10 short
films directed by Jim Piercy and shot by photographer Fredrik
Clement. Besides an introduction to the project, seven of the films
focus on each rider on the team, describing their passion for
cycling, taking risks and building confidence in their abilities as
well as detailing life as a rider on Team Saxo-Tinkoff. The final two
videos feature prominent personnel from the Team Squad, who talk
about their respective roles on one of the best UCI ProTour cycling
teams.

Two additional films featuring Saxo Bank's co-CEOs and founders is
being added to the project after Saxo Bank secured two prizes at the
34th Annual Telly Awards. The first video of the two additional films
is already available together with the original 10 award-winning
saxocycling.com films.
