Story

Johan du Plessis and Will Frazer plan to cycle around the world to help bring an end to illegal trade in rhino horn.

In November 2013 we both realised, for our own reasons, that it was time for a challenge. The timing was perfect, the plan was hatched and before we knew it we were going to go on a bit of an adventure. On 20 April 2014 we plan to set off on a 7 month extended bike ride around the world.

We are riding around the world to raise awareness of how demand for rhino horn in eastern Asia is leading to the plight of one of nature’s most iconic species. We hope to raise money to help the charity Save the Rhino continue it’s valuable work in protecting viable populations of wild rhino across Africa and Asia from poaching and habitat loss.
