Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

This is my forth year taking on the Saigon Children's Charity Cycling challenge.  It is a great cause to support, helping the disadvantaged kids of Vietnam to get an education, leading to a better future.

I thought last year was big... This year we have 300 Km's to ride in north to south down the Ho Chi Minh Trail.  Jungle, mountains, rivers and roads; what a great challenge...

Over the past 5 years the SCC riders have raised over US$250,000 for the underprivileged kids in Vietnam. With this money the charity has built schools and provided support and sponsorship to hundreds of kids. Just think…  US$100 will educate a child for a year!

So four years into riding in Vietnam...   My backside is used to the bike saddle - thank god.  I can ride the distance and climb the hills.  So now... I just need to conquer the Ho Chi Minh Trail.

With your help and support, I am riding to raise $5,000 in donations for the education of the disadvantaged kids of Vietnam. 

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity.  So it’s the most efficient way to donate – saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
