Inspired Adventures just got back from a fantastic Save the Children Vietnam Cycling Challenge. Visiting a micro-finance project in Hanoi, then a thrilling 400k ride from Hue to HCMC.

....and here is the movie

In November last year 20 slightly unhinged adventurers took the seats of their Enfield Bullets and rode from Amristar to Shimla in Nothern India to raise money for
Mission Australia.

Putting the pain back into fundraising!

Simon Wilkins is raising money for his Vietnam Cycle Challenge
for Northcott Disability Services

The concept is simple, divide your body up into sections that are auctioned off to the highest bidder, then they get to inflict an enormous amount of pain upon you.

The added incentive here of course is from an Aussie persepctive Simon is a POM.

Congratulations to the Heart Foundation London Marathon Team

Justine (from Inspired) who is over in London sent these pictures of the incredible event. You all ROCK. Thank you from the team at Inspired.

Over $100,000 raised so far and counting.....!!!!!
