My story

Monsieur’s Richardson and New will cycle their Fixed Gear Fashion Bicycles from their spiritual home of Bristol, to their ancestral home of Fleet, laughing in the face of their own inability to complete the challenge before them. 

Along the way, there will be pain, tears, the appalling British weather and no chance to rest the weary legs. 

Fixed gear bikes have no free wheel, and no gears. Our hero’s will literally be pedaling the entire distance, with no easier gears for up hills, and no rest on the way back down. 

With little to no training, a complete lack knowledge about their undertaking, and a poor sense of direction, the two intrepid adventures will struggle to arrive at the end point, and even less likely to make it one piece.

In the process, the gentlemen hope to encourage their friends and family to donate money to Temwa, a Bristol based charity building sustainably communities in Malawi. To find out more about their great work please visit their site.

My charity

Temwa

Temwa

Charity Registration No. 1101090

Temwa is an organisation that raises funds to implement community-based projects in Malawi, southern Africa. Temwa is based in an area called Usisya, on the north shore of Lake Malawi. This remote area has no electricity, no running water and is severely affected by the AIDS epidemic. Due to poor road and telecommunications infrastructure, public services and other relief efforts are very limited. Overseen by a project Manager in Malawi, Temwa runs a series of programmes that are aimed at proving sustainable, community-driven development in four key areas: Health education, Skills development, Agriculture and irrigation and Schools support. In the future Temwa plans to establish similar schemes in other parts of Malawi.
