Thank you for visiting our fundraising page. Please dig deep and sponsor The 3 Amigos for completing our Motorbike Adventure.
Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Vision Africa Give A Child A Future will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.
I am delighted to announce that The 3 Amigos - Benny S (aka Ben Sellers), Stevie D (aka Stephen Davies), Benny G (aka Ben Greig) have successfully completed 4000 miles across Argentina & Uruguay in 21 'riding' days, on Honda 650cc Transalps.
Departing from Buenos Aires, through Las Pampas (The Desert), south-west, to the famous Siete Lagos (7 Lakes) where we crossed the Andes to the Chilean board before arriving in the wine region of Mendoza, then heading back through Las Pampas Grande to the mountains in Cordoba, back to the river in Sante Fe, on the east , before heading south to BA for our final leg along the southern coast of Uruguay and back to finish.
As promised, there were daily uploads of pictures to Flickr -
http://www.flickr.com/photos/benjsellers/
All photos and video were taken from my i600 Samsung and uploaded from over 80 free wireless connections hunted down across Argentina & Uruguay. All 422 images have annotations and many have had some great comments added from our valued friends and family tracking us throughout our adventure. You can also find 36 videos on You Tube - www.youtube.com/benjsellers which will give you a bit more of a feel for what we experienced.
Our Aim was to raise £2000+ for Vision Africa 'Give A Child A Future' and we would really welcome your support. 'Just 50p a week is enough to provide a meal for a child for every day that they are in school' quote from www.vision-africa.org
Thanks and best wishes,
The 3 Amigos - Benny S (aka Ben Sellers), Stevie D (aka Stephen Davies) & Benny G (aka Ben Greig)
