Personal message

I am Jean Arnaud, 35 years old, husband and father to a beautiful daughter. Originally from Mauritius but been living in Cape Town for the past 13 years. I really enjoy sports in general but i am a running and cycling enthusiast. I have always enjoyed the CTCT irrespective of how difficult it can be on the day but it is such an amazing experience.

I have been very fortunate to ride for the children of Home of Hope before and also met them on several occasions. They now have a special spot in my heart and they all deserve to be children, to be happy, to feel safe and to feel loved, they deserve the world just like any other child. Riding for them and raising funds is my contribution towards a better future for those lovely children. I am very honoured and proud to be part of such an amazing experience.

It’s not about how much you do, but how much love you put into what you do that counts – Mother Teresa

Not all of us can do great things. But we can do small things with great love – Mother Teresa
