Hey guys.
Just to let you know of a little project a few friends of mine and I have been working away on the last few months.
We have decided to try to and raise money for a few charities, selected for different reasons, but all in our opinions, very worthy causes.
The basic idea is that we are doing a number of fun events around Ireland (including a 5-day cycle down the beautiful west coast, which we invite you to join us on), to raise money and awareness for these charities. The finale of fundraising drive will be a 14-day trip to Ghana where we will undertake a 580km cycle. (Please note we are funding the trip to Ghana ourselves, and 100% of personal donations will be going to a central fund and split between the chosen charities).
We will bring you updates along the way, but the main purpose of this message is to announce the launch of our website,
http://www.bamboocycle.ie, which we are delighted to say, went live last night!
Although a lot of work has gone into the website, it is still an early version, and there are likely to be some errors/mistakes. So do be gentle, but any feedback/comments, will be very welcome.
Any help you can offer will be greatly appreciated, and we hope you can help spread the word. Maybe you know a newspaper that might put in a few lines for us, or a company who will sponsor a prize for the raffle, but even if it’s just as simple as passing this along to a few of your friends, we, and the benefiting charities, would be very grateful.
As well as the website, we have a Twitter feed (
http://twitter.com/#!/Bamboocycle) that you can follow, and Facebook profile (
http://en-gb.facebook.com/profile.php?i ... 1489917108) that we will update, so we would be delighted if you would add us as your friend.
Lots of fun and excitement to come in the next few months, and we hope you will join us on this journey.
Cheers,
Tom
