Every dollar counts!
Between 19 and 25 October 2026, I’ll be taking on an incredible adventure—cycling across rugged tracks and wide‑open landscapes that showcase the raw beauty of the Australian outback. It’s far more than a physical challenge for me; it’s the kind of experience that settles into your memory and stays there, long after the dust has settled.
I’m riding to support the ARA Endowment Fund, a long‑term charitable initiative created to make a genuine and lasting difference in Australian communities. With a vision to grow to $10 million and beyond, it will continue to uplift the organisations doing meaningful work across the country.
This journey isn’t just mine. Together, we can help create a legacy that endures.
If you’re able, I’d love for you to sponsor me and be part of something truly impactful.

Tuesday 25th Aug After signing up on the day the event opened I have had some health challenges that may have kept me off the ride, the GREAT news is that I have been cleared by the doctor for not only the event but also the preperation for the event.Thank you to my Sponsors

Great initiative. You can do it! Watch out for Easter Brownies:) You may want to order the standing desk now, because on your return to the office you will try to avoid sitting down too much. Good luck and God Bless!
