No 290 - Solar Cyclists Part 1

The Outdoors Station - A podcast by Bob Cartwright

The one unique aspect of The Outdoors Station, is our ability to freely support people who get out there and do something inspiring. They may not get massive recognition in the main stream media, but we like to honour their efforts, share their journey, hear their passion and respect their achievements, no matter how big or small. One such group of people are the Solar Cyclists, who returned to the UK early 2010 following a 13,000 mile cycle trip, raising funds for Solar Aid and promoting Solar Energy on route. A small team, no back up, minimal gear and just lots of puff! A fantastic story and one which I guarantee will inspire you to do something this year. In part one Susie Wheeldon discusses the planning, the team and how it all came about.
