Leading mental health charity Mind is offering the adventurous an amazing opportunity; the chance to take part in a sponsored bike ride through Vietnam in November 2001. This exciting 10-day trip takes participants from the majestic Marble Mountains to the bustling city of Saigon via an amazing backdrop of verdant rainforest and paddy fields. It also offers the rare opportunity to step back in time away from the pressures of modern life and experience the overwhelming friendliness of the Vietnamese people.

In return for the initial fee of £299 and minimum sponsorship level, entrants will receive all accommodation, meals, bike, lots of moral and fund-raising support. You don't have to be super-fit because Mind will provide training advice to ensure everyone is ready for the challenge. Prizes will also be awarded to top fund-raisers.

Sponsorship from just one participant could fund the entire Mind InfoLine for 4 working days, helping 400 people in crisis. Mind provides vital support to the one in four people experiencing mental health problems.

To find out more about the bike ride call 0870 012 9001 or e-mail .
