Thanks for visiting my Fundraising Page for Simpson Desert Bike Challenge 2014!

The Simpson Desert Bike Challenge is a 5 day race covering approx 590km. Each race day has two stages - 80km morning / 50km afternoon approx.

Starting at Purni Bore at 6am on day 1, the course traverses some 700 sand dunes (including Big Red), salt lakes, vast cattle stations and gibber plains finishing on day 5 outside a classic Aussie icon - the Birdsville Hotel in the tiny outback town of Birdsville in Queensland.

You can sponsor me and leave a message by selecting the donate button above.

Thanks for your encouragement, thanks for helping us to promote the wonders of the Simpson Desert and thanks for helping us raise funds for the Royal Flying Doctor Service.

You can follow my progress during the race on our https://www.facebook.com/SimpsonDesertBikeChallenge (it's a public page you don't have to join Facebook to track how we're going.)
