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."

Go on Springbrook is steeper than that. You can do it.
Hey Guys
Today your going to turn left and start heading up towards home, just a few more days of hard slog then you’ll know your nearly here. Remember pain will go away but you will always have those amazing memories of what you are achieving. If is gets too hot (and 36 deg is hot) try sleeping thru the day pref in an AC room and ride at night. Trust me its safe and all you need is the headlights from your follow vehicle. You will be so refreshed and feel really good with probally less wind. If they can find ice get your crew to ice you down especially your feet and legs. Glad to see your eating like a horse becuase your riding like a stallion. Keep going strong these next few days then you will start realising this monumental achievment.
