Help me support Royal Far West
The Royal Far West has had a long history of helping country kids by providing much needed services, including to kids in my home town of Forbes in Central West NSW.
I have always wanted to do a bike ride to Sydney given I have driven it so many times so why not raise some money and awareness as well and ride some hilly backroads!
The ride will be held over two days and starts early on Friday 4th April at the Royal Far West Op Shop in Forbes and will finish at the Royal Far West headquarters in Manly on Saturday night 5th April. It will be a huge two days of riding with valuable support provided by fellow members of the Forbes Road and Mountain Bike Clubs.
I would love it if you could support me to raise money for a great cause and as many of you know I love a physical challenge!
