My target 116 kms

Bike riding goal achieved but fund raising fell far short,

My have achieved  my ride goal of 116km ride 15 days to spare.  My fund raising goal is something else. I felt embarrased to ask for a minimum  $50.00 which thought was a biit steep when people are struggling to cope with cost of living and mortage repayments.  Also in this day and age donors are reluctant to give information such as email address and bank details. Such questions produce fear of exposure to fraud or at the least fear of plishing.   
There are a number of other “virtual” fund raising bike rides seeking funds at the moment and they competing for donors.  Starlight and the Royal Flying  Doctor to butbtwo but two.  I got  the feeling the some of the other funds had easier  software programmes to navigate through and gave more information without bombarding  riders with heaps of “conditions” that are painful to read through.

I’m taking on Cycle for Heart

I’m jumping on the bike this month and setting myself a challenge to raise money for the Heart Foundation. If you can, I’d really appreciate your support. Every bit helps.  I have exceeded my donation target.

Thank you to my Sponsors
