In August 2017 we will be embarking on an intrepid voyage across the mysterious subcontinent of india. We will be riding a 7 horsepower glorified awning (pictured) 3000 kilometers along the western coast, and with any luck raising a few quid for a couple of charities.
The Rickshaw Run is an event consisting of around 80 teams traversing the roads of India. It's run by a charitable organisation called The Adventurists, these guys run similar events all over the place and have helped to raise heaps for charity over the years.
Have a gander at: www.theadventurists.com/rickshaw-run
We will cover 100% of the trip costs ourselves. All donations will go directly to the two charities we are supporting:
Max Appeal
http://www.maxappeal.org.uk/
"Max Appeal was founded by parents of children diagnosed with DiGeorge Syndrome/VCFS/22q11.2 deletion. They are a small national charity, run almost exclusively by a group of dedicated volunteers backed up with a knowledgeable panel of medical professionals."
Cool Earth
https://www.coolearth.org/
"Cool Earth is the charity that works alongside indigenous villages to halt rainforest destruction"
This is the official charity of The Adventurists - the organisers behind the Rickshaw Run. This is a charity dedicated to maintaining and preserving forested land giving control to the indigenous people of the area. We have committed to raising £500 for CoolEarth.
