My Activity Tracking

kms

I'm fundraising for...

In late March 2024, I will embark on a 5-day ride across the mountains and coasts of Taiwan. This ride will cover 766km and more than than 10,000m of climbing (Mt Everest is only 8849m). Day 3 alone will be the equivalent of climbing Mt Hotham followed by Falls Creek, Mt Buller and Mt Buffalo.

The ride is in aid of Ronald McDonald House Charities which provide support for families - keeping them together and close to the care they need.

I'd love to have your support!

Final training ride!

Saturday 9th Mar
Well, in the last month we’ve done a 190km ride over Hotham, Omeo and up to Falls Creek, another double Donna Buang, a 150k Peninsula ride with lots of hills, and plenty of mid-length and indoor sessions of Mt Buller/Falls/Europe. 
Which brings us to lunchtime the day before 3Peaks up in the Falls Creek village. Enjoying burgers and coke as we do our final checks for the 235km/4500m/34degree day tomorrow. 
Bring it on!

On track

Wednesday 17th Jan
Last weekend included a double climb of Mt Donna Buang with some of the great crew coming to Taiwan. This followed recent trips from Noojee to Mt Baw Baw, and a Tawonga Gap (2)/Mt Hotham/Falls Creek weekend. 
In Feb we’ll do another weekend in the high country leading up to the March ‘3 Peaks’ event - our final big hit out before Taiwan.
