Jack Sinclair Cycle across Australia - Charity Bike Ride for Big Brothers Big Sisters of Australia
4,500 kms in 30 days
Big Brothers Big Sisters of Australia - Mentors for young people9 yo Tim Summers puts his head inside Jack’s tent and sees he’s getting a leg massage.
“Why are you getting a massage?” he asks.
“Because he’s cycled a very long way and a massage helps,” says Jack’s mum.
Tim’s reply: “Oh, harden up!”

In September 2008, 15 year old Jack Sinclair and his dad Brendon, will cycle 4,500 kms across Australia (from Perth to Surfers Paradise) in just 30 days.
The ride will be used to raise to help raise funds for Big Brothers Big Sisters of Australia - a fantastic organisation who match up mentors to children who need a positive role model. Let's give a helping hand.
Cycling legend Robbie McEwen is our Ride Ambassador and said:
"For a young man of just 15 years of age to undertake this huge journey with the discipline and commitment he is showing is inspiring."

I agree… Harden up son….! no Year 10 girl is going to want a boy who gets a massge every night by his mum or sisters… regardles of the fact that he may have cycled 150km for the last 21 days. Harden up!! and eat some pies boy!
