"Ukrainians, French, Belgians, and other foreigners have donated. We thank everyone for every hryvnia and euro!" said Tetiana Oharkova, one of the authors of Kult: Podcast, who supported the initiative.

According to Sébastien, 170 people transferred funds.

He also shared that he never had a flat tire during his trip, drank four beers, smoked 20 cigarettes, and ate "countless goodies."
For reference:

It should be noted that a British businessman of Ukrainian origin rode a bicycle seven thousand kilometers to raise funds for Ukrainian children affected by the war that Russia is waging against Ukraine.

As Rubryka reported, on April 29, Kristo Enn Vaga, a member of the State Defense Commission of the Parliament of Estonia and the Ukraine-Estonia parliamentary group, set out on a bicycle from Tallinn to Kyiv to run in support of Ukraine.

On May 3, 2024, he arrived in the Ukrainian capital. The Estonian MP covered the distance between Tallinn and Kyiv by bicycle. The purpose of his trip was to collect money for the needs of the Defense Forces of Ukraine.
