Paul Levy: Bike4Life in the Atlas Mountains

Paul Levy: Bike4Life in the Atlas MountainsI have just returned from a fund-raising event for this agency, a group mountain bike ride through the Atlas Mountains in Morocco. Styled Bike4Life, the ride took about 60 of us nearly 250 kilometers up and down rocky roads and gravel paths. Participants came from Europe, Canada, and the US. This was my third such event with Focus, the previous ones being a bike ride down the Konkan Coast of India and a hike through a national park in Madagascar. Participants pay for their own travel expenses and then donate their own funds and/or solicit pledges from others to raise money for this charity.
