12,000km for the Heart Foundation

Hi all,

I won't lie, this is basically a blatant plea to help out with my fundraising efforts but I'm trying to exhaust all avenues I can, hopefully you can take the time to read


Next year I'm taking 5 months off work and taking part in the Tour d'Afrique (http://www.tourdafrique.com). This has been a dream/goal I've been working toward for the last 4 years. The trip is from Cairo Egypt all the way south through 10 countries to Cape Town in South Africa and is regarded as one of the most challenging cycling events out there.

One of the reasons I am doing this is to raise money for the Heart Foundation who have helped me and my family in the past. My goal is to raise $12,000 - one for each kilometre I will cycle. So far I am 1/3 of the way to my goal.

If you would like to help by donating any amount to the cause, please check out the website I have setup for the ride at http://www.weetbicksgonewild.com. I will also be posting updates as I can through-out the trip.

I would also be hugely appreciative if you can try to spread the word and tell as many folks about it as possible, the more people who are aware of it and can help support then the closer I get to my goal.

cheers!
