Back in February 2017 a friend of mine Chris Fisher mentioned a story on the radio of a lady who had travelled around the Middle East by bicycle and had mentioned he would love to do something as inspiring as that.

So after numerous meetings and discussions and a big push from our RPM instructor Adrian Munteanu we decided to put the wheels in motion to host our own charity event for the Sultanate of Oman's 47th National Day.

After meeting Sabah Mohammed Al Bahlani a few months ago she showed us around her special needs school in Azaiba. This type of schooling is very limited in Oman and the school is at full capacity. Sabah needs staff and the funds for support and training. That is where we come in!!!

The Tour De Turtle team will be riding from Muscat to Ras Al Had on 15th November 2017 for 3 days. 80-100 KM per day. For us not so sporty people this is a real challenge and one we have not accepted lightly.

We have met so many people willing to help us on the way that we now have such a strong support team.

We would love for people to join us on the Tour De Turtle adventure and help us raise money and awareness for the Association of Early Intervention for Children with Disability, it really is going to be something special.

If you are unable to join us but would still love to help a donation would be really appreciated. For more information please contact us on tourdeoman@yahoo.com or 00968 97181795.
