Fuel the Mules in Iceland

$3,745.00 raised so far

In August, Miles and Benedict Noel are taking 4 weeks to cycle around Iceland for adventure and to
raise money for the charity CREA (Conservation through Research, Education and Action). Our goal is
to raise enough money to purchase at least 100 acres of the Cocobolo rainforest (3900 USD) in
Panama. Prior to the cycling trip we will be spending 3 months exploring Central America firsthand.


Iceland is an island located between the United Kingdom and Greenland and with a
population of just over 300,000 people. There is one main road which runs around the coast of the
island called the ring road, which is approximately 1500km in circumference. We will be cycling on
this road anti-clockwise and staying in camp grounds and off-road where there are no facilities. We
will have limited equipment for a month as all our gear has to fit onto our bikes. My bike is a
custom built foldable "pocket llama", purchased from bikefriday.com. If you are interested in the
bikes and mention my name you will receive a discount or free equipment. Miles will purchase his
bike in New York, a week before we depart for Iceland.

18/08/2008Tristan McAfee$100.00That's right, I don't dare myself to juggle whilst naked in volcanic hot springs. Perhaps I could dare myself to eat one of those tasty delicacies, like a singed sheep's head or pickled ram's testicles. Maybe we can just dare ourselves to drink a tonne of scotch...that'll at least wash away that "baaaaaaa" -d taste. Love, Mule #4.
