2020 will be my ninth year involved with this ride, although this year has come about unexpected!
My good friend Julie has asked me to deputize for her after she unfortunately broke her achilles :-( So I am back involved after all!
Many people ask why do you keep doing it. On the one hand there is the personal benefit of keeping fit doing the training, maintaining a network of close friends with a great bunch of like minded riders and of course getting to spending one of the best weeks of the year riding your bike!
But the overwhelming reason is a sense of continued desire to support Youth Focus's efforts helping the youth of WA with their mental health and raising awareness of the issues they face.
Many family, friends and colleagues have provided their support over the past 9 years and your continuing support is greatly appreciated!
