On Wednesday
14th December Mr Garth Lezard came to speak to Rooms 9, 10 and 12
about his journey biking around the world. Garth has biked around 5 of the
world’s continents: North America, South America, Asia, Europe and Africa. He
is currently riding around our continent, Oceania.
Garth
started his journey on 4th December 2010 and has been on a 3 and a
half year journey. We learnt that there are many caring people around the world
that are willing to help. Garth’s first bike, ‘Craigey’, (not sure how to spell
it) helped him until it was ‘Craigey’’s time to retire, but Garth eventually
got a new bike.
Did you know
that Garth travels on a plane or boat to other countries, so he doesn’t
technically bike around the world because you can’t bike on water or else
you’ll just sink.
He told us
that he met lots of new people that later on became his sponsors.Garth is cycling to raise money for charity. We wish Garth
Lezard the best of luck on the final part of his journey.
