Project Report | Nov 6, 2024
We did it!!!

A huge thanks to everyone who cheered us on and supported up in our 800km bike ride this year. Every day for 16 days we cycled 50km all around Pattaya. Every day we chose a different route and came back to base when we needed drinks, food and the loo! We don't ride from point A to point B because this type of ride costs a lot of money to organise and run as you need hotels and safety vehicles etc. 

By beginning and ending each day at our housing estate meant that it cost nothing to run the ride except for our energy and some drinks and snacks. This also means that 100% of the funds raised goes to buying rice and food.

We had some other groups doing shorter rides including our 4- 8 year olds who rode a whopping 64km!!!!

We have one group doing a 100km walk and other riding 200km and 400km. Margie and Alan rode the whole 800km!

The ride not only raised money but it was also a team building activity with the group. In total we have 25 people participating. Everyone received their certificates of completion and these are definitely treasure items.

Thanks again. We appreciate you all.
