The Tour de Kids rolled into Sydney today completing an epic 1200km journey that began in Melbourne a week ago.
Today we rode 140km from Moss Vale.
Already the Tour has raised over $400,000 with more to come. It's not too late to support this wonderful effort to help seriously sick kids with a small donation. Just click on one of the riders and complete your details to help make a difference.
It's been an amazing week.
Today saw a few fresh legs join the Tour de Kids bunch for the last few days.
A headwind was present for most of the 170km ride from Canberra to Moss Vale, which probably wasn't appreciated by the guys who'd been pedaling since Saturday.
A moderate pace was maintained in order to keep the bunch together whilst we rode up the freeway. But as soon as we left the main road it was on for young and old. The alpha dogs decided to light it up for the last 15km into Moss Vale while the intelligent guys cruised home at a more sedate pace.
Unfortunately I wasn't intelligent enough to realise I'm not one of the alpha dogs and blew up 5k from home.
All in all it was a great day in the saddle.
