meals, drinks, presents and a wonderful, lasting memory

In 2011 we participated in the 94.7 Cycle Challenge for the first time. This

extra exposure for our sponsors!

on their needs. Of course, we focus on
sustainable projects but sometimes

beneficiaries and we know that the
donations are well spent.
