Computing has helped raise more than £50,000 to send 600 refurbished computers to schools in Kenya after completing the Computer Aid Kenya Cycle Challenge last week.
Editor-in-chief Toby Wolpe, publisher Robin Booth and senior reporter Dave Friedlos completed the 400km ride from Mount Kenya to Lake Victoria.
The first container of computers has arrived and will be distributed to 15 schools in the next two weeks.
