Congratulations and thank you to the fundraisers who took part in the Big Heart Bike Ride this year in Africa. It was a 400 kilometre bike ride through Tanzania to raise money for four heart charities, including CRY. We would like to extend our congratulations to the couple that got engaged while on the trip and wish Ramon and Kath all the best for a very happy future together!

Below is a quote from Ann Frampton, the event organiser, to those involved:

“Welcome home and huge congratulations on achieving the challenge of the Big Heart Bike Ride in Africa. And challenging it was! Hilly, hot, rough and tough – but you did it. You were part of a fantastic team and it was truly an honour to cycle with everyone. I was incredibly impressed with how you all rose to the challenge and really did dig deep when the going got tough – especially on those camping nights! This event will always be very special for the most amazing celebration dinner and the wonderful and romantic proposal that we all witnessed – congratulations again to Ramon and Kath – we all wish you a very long and happy future together…”

“…Thank you so much for your wonderful contribution to the Big Heart Bike Ride – raising money, training and actually achieving a challenge of a lifetime. Thanks also for your kind words at the celebration dinner and my lovely presents, it was very much appreciated. Please keep in touch and hopefully we will see you on another challenge one day!”
