Personal
message:
We are pleased to report
that we have completed the
bike ride successfully on
Sunday the
9th May.
We started the day in the
rain, wind and cold but
after about an hour of
cycling it cleared up and we
managed to pick up the pace.
In the end we cycled
approximately 75 miles,
including getting to the
starting line and back. It
was a tiring day, but we're
glad we did it and very
pleased with the sponsorship
we have received and what we
raised for ICIN.
We'll have a few photos from
the day on this website. For
the gadget fans the
following is a link with
some stats and a map of our
route.

We would like to extend a
big
thank you
to all of you who have
sponsored us.
If you haven't sponsored us
yet it is not too late. This
website is still up and
accepting sponsorship.
About the
"Classic Oxfordshire
Sponsored Bike Ride"
This bike ride is part of an
organised event for the
challenge of cycling 60
miles and would be very
happy if we could raise some
money for ICIN by completing
the event. We will leave
London by train on Sunday
morning and go to
Oxfordshire, where we will
cycle a circular route of 60
miles through various
Oxfordshire villages. We
hope to maintain an average
pace of 10mph as the terrain
is quite hilly. Hopefully
upon successful completion
we will return to London by
train on Sunday afternoon.
We
welcome your sponsorship to
raise money for ICIN.
ICIN is a UK registered
charity that
was established to help the
Iraqi Christians
who, as a result of events
during the past few years,
have been
-
displaced,
destitute,
persecuted
-
and
are suffering
financial hardship.
