I'm looking to raise a few funds for Nick Tucker, a mate who has been battling a brain tumour for a number of years now. On Nick's bucket list is, if possible, to have a bit more of a look around mainland Australia. All money raised will go toward this bucket list wish and/or Nick's medical expenses.
The Challenge is for myself Mark Pritchett to ride my bicycle from Penguin to Hobart in a day via the West Coast. Around 425kms with 5500m of climbing. Bit of a challenge yes, but it'll all be over in a day (I hope), where as Nick's Challenge continues.
We’d appreciate any contribution, big or small.
Thanks so much for your support!
Ride date: Saturday Feb. 28th, 2015.

Nick was diagnosed with a brain tumour in 2006, he has undergone 11 separate operations with his longest stay in hospital being 2 months. Nick's tumour is located at the back of the brain where the spinal column joins & therefore can not be fully removed.
