The Dream Team

I'm Munene and I work in the banking sector as a financial systems developer. A father of one.

I am a Starehean and I’ll jump onto any opportunity to give back to my Alma mater because ‘To whom much is given, much will be required.’

 

PS: I am not normally as serious as my photo looks.

My name is David Ndatha a bike enthusiast and head coach at Team Velonos. I love racing both on road and off road.

I do train people about cycling, beginners and elite cyclists alike. I do love Duathlon Races and do train people on the same.

I am a cycling enthusiast with an obsession for endurance cycling adventures. I like being useful hence my involvement in charity rides like 500in24.

Hi, 

My name is Ian and I am many things; a kickass graphic designer, a brother, a hiker, a tea drinker, 20% hair, a cyclist, and a philanthropist. Most importantly, I am an Old Boy of the esteemed Starehe Boys’ Centre. Starehe taught me diligence, polished my determination, and imbued a sense of responsibility for my brethren. It is a big part of why I started 500in24.

What began as a personal challenge has evolved into a small community and I would love you to join us. This year we have the 500in24 Roads and Mountains edition. It is our third edition and you get to experience it like never before. You can be a part of the project by donating to the cause, and by being part of the activities. Take a look at our calendar over at www.500in24.com and see where you fit in. Remember, two people can move a couch really easily, one person can only drag it. Be a part of the team in 2023!

My name is Moses but everyone calls me Mo because it’s shorter and cooler. I am an experienced content copywriter and strategist. I am in charge of most keyboard-related tasks at 500in24 in the “office”. During events, I am the community liaison tasked with talking to the locals and securing on-the-go resources. Sometimes I hide Ian’s shoelaces. 

Outside of 500in24, I am a father, a tree hugger, and a Football Manager expert.
