Pioneer valley rail trail

Decided to do an afternoon ride on the new Pioneer Valley Rail Trail. Only 8kms of trail is opened so far. This trail takes you through backroads and cane farms, very scenic and a nice pedal. Wanted to get up to 20kms for this pedal so added a bit of extra pedaling outside of town. 😅

Mackay harbour ride to rack up those km’s

With out wanting to ride on the roads it’s really hard to try and rack up those kms for this challenge. Managed a 25km pedal on bike pathways out to the harbour and back today. It was such a beautiful day for it with a nice sea breeze only came across one angry magpie 🦅 that decided to chase me for a while! 😅 This challenge may be the end of me 😉

First 25kms started!!

Quick after work laps at the local trail head to try and start knocking those kms down! Managed the first 25kms before loosing to much sunlight! Only 375kms left to go 😅

We're fundraising for the Royal Flying Doctor Service

Australia is a big country, and for those living in remote, rural and regional areas, access to immediate care isn’t a guarantee. For some communities, the nearest hospital is eight hours drive away.

This October, we're taking on a month-long fitness challenge to help more people access the care they need. By going further, we hope to raise as much as possible for the Royal Flying Doctor Service (RFDS).

Every year, the RFDS reach more than 330,000 Australians with 24-hour emergency retrieval and primary healthcare services. That’s one person every two minutes!

Together, we can keep the Flying Doctor flying and continue their life-saving work. Please donate to our challenge today!
