Newborns getting active!

 

Over the weekend, Team Newborns competed in the Coupe de Hue Cycle Race, an extreme 165km two-day ride with over 3,100m of climbing, including a time trial up Bach Ma National Park and an 150km/1,800m Gran Fondo from Hue to A Luoi and back.

 

Our riders did us proud, they came 4th in the overall team event, 2nd in the 18-35 event and 1st in the 50+ event, with the 50+ winner Nick Pilgrim generously donating his prize money to Newborns. We feel blessed to have such a committed community of people ready to support us in getting to our goal of zero preventable deaths of newborn babies in Vietnam. Without your tireless efforts we could not do the work we do.

 

Big thank you to our riders who competed valiantly over the weekend, we are proud to have you represent Newborns Vietnam.
