Final day of the HSBC Life Cycle Challenge 2008: Another short day and today the cyclists are preparing to enjoy the ride. The culmination of the challenge is so near at hand. It’s difficult for the cyclists to control their excitement and take it easy whilest riding the last few kilometers of their epic trip. Some cyclists have even decided to decorate their bikes and show off the Maltese colors as they come in towards the second holiest site in Islam, the spectacular King Hassan 2 Mosque.

Everyone was be aware of the fact that accidents or problems can still happen on the last day and the participants commanded their excitement and high spirits to make sure they reach their Final Checkpoint safely.

The Moroccan police kindly escorted the cyclists as they entered into the heart of Casablanca to the picturesque finish at the Mosque. The atmosphere was palpably beautiful as the cyclists joyfully celebrated their great success!!!

From the 15th August till the 25th August…HSBC Lifecycle 2008 has cycled from Lourdes to Casablanca.

Congratulations to all participants!!

It has been a long trip and I hope you have enjoyed listening to our travels.

Lifecycle will be back bigger and better next year as we travel all over the world to raise money for Renal Disease patients.

More detailed information and photos will be uploaded as soon as we receive them from Casablanca or Madrid. Currently, the team is experiencing problems connecting with the Internet and to send us the updates. We thank you for your patience.
