Thanks to my Supporters!
So, nearly 18 months on now, and what a roller coaster it has been!
Amazing to see all the riders, sponsors and volunteers stick with Road Raise throughout these tough times. We have even added more riders to what we all hope will be a cracking event in March 2021. As you are all aware, the impact on the not-for-profit sector has been profound, especially for all in-person fundraising events and traditional fundraising methods.
As a result of the 2020 postponement of our journey to Melbourne (1100km, 7500m Elevation), the upcoming 2021 Road Raise event has been re-invented and will now see ~35 cyclists travelling through an extended route in South Australia. Sure it isn’t Melbourne, and sure it is only 1000km in 7-days, but… it is also now over 12,000 metres of climbing… more than Everest and Kosciuszko combined. It is actually a much harder prospect!
The message is still the same. Cancer hasn’t changed, neither have the youth directly impacted by it. Canteen is still here supporting. Road Raise as an event will be embarking on its fifth tour, and by the looks, this will be the moment it ticks over raising in excess of $1,000,000. The money raised goes directly to canteen - no admin.
Many of you have already generously donated or been involved with my previous raffle. Treat this as an update and ongoing thankyou before we start to ride on Saturday, March 20. Will keep you updated as it kicks off… THANKYOU for your support!!!
