Braking in Albania
Dear Friends
We’re writing to tell you all about ‘Braking in
Albania’, an exciting new challenge that begins at the end of March.
‘Braking in Albania’ is a cycle ride from Hani i Hotit in the north of the
country to Konispol in the South.
We set off on Friday 27th March and plan to
return to Tirana from Konispol the following Saturday (4th April), having cycled
over 400 km and enjoyed some of the beauty of Albania
Why are we doing
this?
It’s a mixture of adventure and fundraising.
The idea of cycling
across Albania was inspired by the ‘Walk of Hope’ last year and from our love of
discovering new areas of Albania
We are also raising money for BMS World
Mission in the UK .
There are five of us taking part in the challenge:
| Graham McBain |
(BMS & Kisha
Drita e Botës -Shkozë) |

(BMS & Kisha Drita e Botës -Shkozë) |
| Gary Anderson |

| Idlir Proseku |

We will also be joined on the road by Mark Russell who
will be driving our support vehicle
