Fundraisers to cycle from Algeciras to Tangier

CAMPO de Gibraltar keep-fit fans are gearing up for a cycle ride across the sea to Africa.

More than 120 people will be going all out on the deck of a ferry as it crosses from Algeciras to Tangier and back on April 30 – in an onboard spinning class.

Using exercise bikes gathered from gyms all over Algeciras, the ship-shape participants hope to raise money for the Plataforma de Solidaridad Vecinal and Cáritas.

The charities represented provide aid and support to local impoverished people.

“The riders will enjoy an adventure pedalling on the sea while enjoying a spinning class to music and admiring spectacular scenery,” said spokeswoman Laura Poyatos.
