BIKING FOR BEANS 2016
On 28th July 2016 from Cheltenham's picturesque promenade and home of Cheltenham's Green Coffee Machine cart, three friends, Chris, Simon and Ryan will start their mammoth 4-day cycle ride to Paris.
The lads will be cycling on average 60 miles a day through the UK countryside and across to French soil, eventually arriving at the Eiffel Tower to raise money for the charity, Planting for Hope Uganda. Their aim is to raise £300 each.
In the village of Kititi in Uganda £300 will buy an acre of land. The lads aim to buy an acre of land each with the money they raise. Once this land is bought, the women and children of the village can all work together to develop self-supporting, sustainable farming methods and then in turn construct and plant a coffee plantation on the three acres. This will help the village to become sustainable.
Its going to be tough, but the lads have been training hard and are looking forward to the challenge. Please dig deep and every donation counts.
Thank you :-)
