New Forest bikers are buzzing off to Casablanca
6:40am Friday 5th June 2009 in
ADVENTUROUS bikers are aiming to raise thousands for a New Forest charity – by riding all the way to Casablanca and back.
Four fundraisers, from mobile phone makers Sony Ericsson, are setting off in July and aim to ride all the way to the Moroccan city and back in just a week – a round trip of 2,600 miles.
Team Bumblebee, consisting of Jason Smith, Paul Hobson, Chris Round and Simon Beech, are taking on the gruelling challenge to raise £10,000 for the Forest-based Honeypot charity, which helps vulnerable children throughout the country.
To sponsor the team go to justgiving.com/rideofthebumblebee.
