CHAIN REACTION 2027 - TASMANIA 1,000km. 7 Days. One Purpose. Changing Children's Lives.
In May 2027, I'll once again be pushing my physical and mental limits, cycling 1,000 kilometres over seven days through the breathtaking but unforgiving terrain of Tasmania as part of the Chain Reaction Challenge.
From the spectacular coastal roads to the relentless mountain climbs and rugged wilderness, this will be a true test of endurance, resilience and determination.
But this challenge isn't about me, the kilometres or crossing the finish line. It's about giving children the opportunity to live healthier, happier lives and creating brighter futures for those who need it most.
Why I'm Riding Again
In 2026, I had the privilege of completing my first Chain Reaction Challenge in South Australia, cycling approximately 1,000km and climbing more than 13,000 vertical metres over seven days.
It was one of the toughest physical challenges I've ever undertaken, but also one of the most rewarding.
The experience reminded me that while we choose to push ourselves physically, many children and families face far greater challenges every day — challenges they never chose.
That's why I've decided to do it all again in 2027.
Not simply to test my limits, but because I believe we all have an opportunity to make a meaningful difference in the lives of others.
Riding for a Greater Cause
This year, I'm raising vital funds for two incredible charity partners:
BaptistCare HopeStreet - Supporting vulnerable children, young people and families experiencing hardship by providing essential services, practical assistance and pathways towards safer, more secure futures.
So They Can - Empowering children in East Africa through education and community development, creating opportunities and helping break the cycle of poverty.
Together, these organisations embody the spirit of Chain Reaction: riding with purpose and making every kilometre count.
Why Your Support Matters
Every dollar raised helps Chain Reaction and its charity partners deliver vital programs that make a real and lasting difference in children's lives.
Your generosity helps:
- Provide safety and security through access to safe housing, essential services and support for vulnerable children and families facing difficult circumstances.
- Create opportunities through education, giving children the knowledge, resources and support they need to break the cycle of poverty.
- Build brighter futures by providing hope, stability and opportunities for children who deserve the chance to reach their full potential.
For many of these children, access to basic necessities, education and a safe environment can be life-changing.
Together, we have the opportunity to make that change possible.
Every Kilometre Has a Purpose
Over seven days, there will be long hours in the saddle, thousands of metres of climbing, tired legs and moments when the challenge feels overwhelming.
But those moments are temporary.
For the children and families we're supporting, the positive impact we can make can last a lifetime.
That's what will keep me pedalling, kilometre after kilometre.
How You Can Help
I'm reaching out to my friends, family, colleagues and the broader business community to get behind this incredible cause.

By supporting my ride, you're helping fund programs that provide children with safety, education, opportunity and hope.
Every contribution, regardless of size, brings us closer to making a meaningful difference.
Personal donations are greatly appreciated, and corporate sponsorships are especially welcome.

I may be the one pedalling 1,000 kilometres across Tasmania, but it's the generosity and support of people like you that will make this journey truly worthwhile.
Donate today and be part of something bigger than the ride itself.
Together, we can turn every kilometre into hope, every challenge into opportunity and every donation into a brighter future for a child.
