Transaid Plans Charity Bike Ride

Transport development charity Transaid is looking for individuals willing to bike 460 km across Malawi to raise £30,000 for charity. Bicycles have been chosen as they form one of the primary means of transport in the African country.

Team members will average 100 km per day and, to cover transport costs, will have to pay a registration fee of 299 Pounds Sterling and commit to raising a minimum of 2,750 Pounds in sponsorship. The ‘Blazing Saddles Cycle Malawi’ tour will take place in September 2006 and details can be found on www.transaid.org
