HOW would you like to experience the wonders of Egypt on an eight-day bike ride through the last 3,000 years of history along the River Nile?

I'd like to invite you to saddle up in support of Mencap, who simply ask you to pay a £250 registration fee and raise a minimum amount of sponsorship. After that, flights, accommodation on a Nile cruiser, meals and bikes are all included.

The ride takes place in February 2000. Please call 0645 777 779 today to receive your Nile Bike Ride pack or write to The Nile Bike Ride, Mencap, FREEPOST, London, EC1B 1AA. You can also email Mencap at mencap.events@dial.pipex.com
