Tour d'Afrique - Cairo to Cape Town by Bike

The presentation I gave at the University of Ottawa last night certainly turned out well in a number of ways. First and foremost, I had some very positive feedback from some of the near 200 people who attended! There were some fun audience reactions from the photos ranging from laughter to “awww…” to the more silent “Hmmm…”

Citizens for Safe Cycling (www.safecycling.ca) had a booth set-up helping attendees out with great information about cycling in the region. They had a donation jar out and collected just short of $200 to help them proliferate the good word of cycling and make it a safe and easy method of transportation in the area. Thanks to those who donated!

On the note of thanks, I would like to extend my thanks to the University of Ottawa Bicycle Club for their help with publicity. Thanks also go out to OMEGA (Ottawa Mechanical Engineering Graduates’ Association) and the Ottawa Orienteering Club for providing refreshments for the presentation.
