Help me support kids in need

The Sydney Chain Reaction 2023 Challenge will be enormous.  7 monstrous days in the South Island of New Zealand including an ascent on day 7 of Coronet Peak.  I am looking forward to the challenge but what I am most looking forward to is setting a new fundraising benchmark.

The Chain Reaction Foundation supports amazing charities that work tirelessly for kids in need.  This year our major charity partners are:
2. Baptist Care Hope Street (https://baptistcare.org.au/hopestreet)

Both organisations do fantastic work with the help of donations so I ask you to help me support kids in need by sponsoring me so I might carry your donations and well wishes across New Zealand.

THANK YOU  

My Updates

On the plane tomorrow

All the training is done.  My bike is packed in its bike bag and my bake is packed. Feeling a mix of excitement and nerves.  It is a huge challenge but I have trained hard and feel ready.  The fund raising is progressing well and I have been able to revise my target upwards.  The entire group has now raised over $800,000 and we are pushing hard toward our original target of $1,000,000. We feel very proud that 45 riders can raise so much and that there are so many amazing supporters out there willing to help. I personally feel especially appreciative of all of my amazing partners at EY that have been very generous.  As well as one of my great supporters Ben Zehnwirth, owner of actuarial software company Insureware, and my many great friends.  Thanks so much to all of you. If you are still considering a donation it would be great if you can all help by donating to support our fantastic charity partners So They Can and BaptistCare HopeStreet.

4 weeks to go

With 4 weeks to go until the start of the 2023 Challenge training is in full swing.  I am currently doing around 300 km a week in a bid to be hit enough and strong enough to do the ride and help my fellow cyclists get around the route.  It is also full steam ahead on the fund raising as I hope I can raise at least $12,000 and bring my career tally closer to $100,000.  I hope you can help me support kids in need.

Thank You To My Donors
