After cycling 4,000 miles through 17 countries for 60 days, the Tour De Hajj team arrived in Saudi Arabia from London on Saturday. The group of cyclists travelling for Hajj received a hearty welcome upon their arrival in Medina.
Announcing the completion of their mission, the team shared an emotional video of themselves on social media.
They added, “Hajj begins next week and we touched down Masjid Nabawi just after the Maghreb! The hospitality we received today was incredible. Huge thanks to the Saudi Ministry for looking after us.”
People admired and we in awe of the dedication of the cyclists and wished the team all the very best.
The Tour De Hajj (TDH) challenge for Penny Appeal from London to Makkah was hoping to raise tens of thousands for charity. The money collected will fund a model village consisting of schools, places of worship and a water well in four countries – Pakistan, Sri Lanka, South Africa, and Uganda.
