Video compilation of my bike ride from Vancouver to Mexico

Monday, November 17th, 2008

This video brought back great memories from this summer when I undertook a 3000 km bike ride along with 26 other wonderful people to promote microcredit. I miss you guys!

If you’re interested in riding, there’s still space for next year’s 2009 ride, with two routes (a Pacific one and a European one). Apply on the Global AFC website.
