Three young cyclists - Abdullah Taher Chowdhuary, Ariful Islam Bhuiyan and Abhimonyu Saha, successfully crossed Thorong La, one of the highest mountain passes in the world on riding bicycle, reports UNB.
The mission has been organised by Obhijatree with the support of popular noodles brand Noodles and Trekkers of Bangladesh.
As a part of their achievement, Noodles will distribute 10 thousands packs of noodles among orphanages. It was announced through a press conference held at a hotel in capital yesterday.
Toshan Paul, category manager, Riyadul Islam, Brand Manager of Noodles, Shujan Mahmud, Head of Media at PRAN-RFL Group and Tariq Obaida, President, Trekkers of Bangladesh were present at the programme.
Abdullah Taher Chawdhuary said we were able to cross Thorong La, at the altitude of 5416 meters in Nepal on 18 September last year. It was not so easy to do this on riding bicycle. But we did it finally for doing something for our motherland.
He thanked Noodles authority to support this mission.
Toshan Paul said we are glad to participate such an adventurous mission that brought honor to the country.
Paul said the three riders wanted to distribute ten thousands packs of Noodles among orphanages.
So, we will start distributing noodles through two orphanages, Islamia Mission Etimkhana, Dhaka and Ubida Madrasa Etimkhana, Chittagong.
