Our other Charitable deed of note was the:
The Bolivian Bike Challenge
Bro Tony Ingram was taking part in a bike race across the Bolivian Andes, finishing on the Pacific Coast in Chile in September. This was tobe a two week orienteering mountain bike race, starting on top of an active volcano at an altitude of 3.4 miles. The race will take in the spine of the Andes across the Atacama Desert and the largest salt lake in the world. This is a truly epic event that will be televised on the Adventure Challenge Channel.
Sadly two of the race teams backed out and it was cancelled, but we did raise some money no matter, other madness is being planned. |
