Andrew & RandallOn 3 April, 2009, young American brothers Andrew and Randall Leese embarked on a round-the-world bicycle trip to raise money for the relief of Indian orphans. The Brothers invite you to experience their ride vicariously via their trip blog, and encourage you to do your part—by making a donation to the Orphan Ride Cause!

To learn more about the sponsored orphanage, the route, and this pair of maniacal young fellows check out the about page.

This is a “NO OVERHEAD” fundraiser

Girl Giggling…meaning that every cent of the proceeds will benefit the Servi Domini Orphanage. Andrew and Randall are covering travel costs on their own coin. The two will make a stop at the orphanage en route and spend a month or more lending a hand. As they tour the impoverished lands the guys will also visit at least 10 other orphanages.

I had been on another shoulder-free highway for much of the day when I arrived at Azambuja, a town 50k to the east of Lisbon. I did not savor the idea of riding into the large capital city in the dark on a busy road but I strapped on my light resignedly and rebuked myself for getting such a late start.
