Story

Well we made it, an arduous 3 day ride out of Marrakesh, often in extreme heat with far too many overly dramatic “undulations” in the Atlas Mountains, some “roads” which defied description and an unhealthy amount of stomach bugs spread amongst our 40 Truant Riders. We are trying to raise as much money as we can so any reward for our pain is most welcome - Children's Charities are still under severe funding pressure as the economy slowly takes time to recover. Please note that Nordoff Robbins collect and account all monies and then share the proceeds equally with Childline (www.childline.org.uk) and Teenage Cancer Trust (www.teenagecancertrust.org). I paid all costs of the trip personally so that any funds raised here will be 100% for the Charities.
