I can now confirm that this year's Safaricom 10 to 4 Mountain Bike Challenge will now take place on Saturday 11th October 2008.

The Mount Kenya '10 to 4' is a downhill mountain bike race and fun ride, organised by residents from the Nanyuki and Timau area and the Executive Officer of the Mount Kenya Trust. The event is now held annually to raise funds for local communities and conservation efforts on Mount Kenya. The race begins at the edge of the Mount Kenya National Reserve boundary at an elevation of over 10,000 ft and finishes in dry savannah country below on the Laikipia plains at approximately 4,000 ft.

You kindly offered financial support for the event and the Born Free team through this difficult time in Kenya and I want to thank you very much for that.

Thank you so much again for your support and understanding and the team looks forward to taking on the taxing 70km downhill course (and several uphill sections!!!).

Many thanks for your support.
