This is my fifth ride for Youth Focus. My first was in 2005. The Budget team in 2005 was Dave Hutson, Neil McAllister, Shirl Delphine and myself.
Our generous sponsor Budget Rent-a-Car headed up by John Busby supported us then and has continued on for this years event. John "Buzz" Busby will be doing his sixth ride this year.
Team Budget will be having a fundraising race day at Ascot on the 18 February 2012. Stay tuned for further details.
So our race day was completed in style on the 18th February and thanks to very generous support we raised $45,000. A most excellent result.
The ride is just over 4 weeks away with all training hard. First day of the ride is a 150km haul through the Porongurups. Yeehah!
Some sad and tough news. Tim Anderson, a member of the Enjo team was killed on 8th March whilst training for the ride. Tim's dad also a member of Team Enjo.
The legendary (and sometimes brutal) Wednesday training sessions now officially finished as we start to "taper" for the ride.
