Zambia Bike Ride 2011 Hits Kalomo

 

Our Team of Amazing Cyclists Made It!

After months of preparation, hard training and serious fundraising, 30 intrepid British cyclists arrived in Kalomo on Wednesday night this week. This was the 4th day of a 5-day challenge to cycle from Lusaka, Zambia's capital, to Livingstone to raise money for African Revival's projects.

Whilst in Kalomo, the team visited Lubombo and Kinnertone Community Schools, where they were able to walk around and see for themselves the work that African Revival is doing with the local schools and communities.

They also talked to pupils and teachers, and there was even an impromptu game of volleyball using new balls that were donated by the cyclists.

The cycle challenge takes place every year and the money raised goes directly to AR's projects on the ground. If you fancy taking part in next year's challenge, contact our UK office for more information.
