For a long time we are going on a one-week bicycle tour every year. Our new project is to ride from Glasgow to Istanbul. We will start on July 31st 2010 and will continue the tour every year exactly at the point where we arrived the year before. We expect to finish after 6500 km/4000 Miles on the . All our supporters are invited to celebrate our arrival and great finish in in summer 2022 !
On our tour through Europe we want to raise funds for Re~Cycle a fantastic charity, which collect secondhand bicycles and ship them to . Your donation will help Re~Cycle to continue shipping bikes to enable people to lift themselves from poverty. The bikes are given to people in need so that children can travel to school, health workers reach remote regions and people gain access to employment and basic food and water suppliers. Bike mechanics and technicians are also trained at the projects, helping to provide local employment and promote this fun and sustainable form of transport across ! So far Re~Cycle has shipped over 30,000 bikes to . For more details see http://www.re-cycle.org/.
Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure.
