The Gong

For those who don't know, The Gong Ride is a 90 km charity ride from Sydney to Wollongong to raise money for MS Australia. A walk in the park for the serious roadies out there, however this is not me. Having rediscovered cycling only 2 years ago my focus has been off road, which I find pure joy in. However, I have registered for this one. Despite the great pressures of completing my final year of University studies whilst working, I have been talked into the joining the large continent of riders from our office, 30% of the staff have agree to this. It has provoked at least two people to go out and buy a bike for this event. How could I possibly refuse as one of the regular cyclists in the office. Did I mention that this was only five days out from a major submission of my university work...... why did I agree to this? I am still asking the question, but the momentum created is so great, I can not wait to have completed my studies to really push this enthusiasm further, beyond this the Gong ride.

This is a charity ride and I have agreed to also raise a minimum of $250 for MS Australia, please follow this link and lend a hand. Stay tuned for pics of the event.
