Brissy to the Bay Ride

Today I participated in the 50Km ride from Brisbane to the bay (and then back to Brisbane again). You might remember I did up and old bike here and I rode her today! As comfy as the seat is I'm sure I'll have a sore butt tomorrow and I know my legs will be killing me for the next few days as I'm already hobbling around like a grandma.

It was a fundraiser event for the Multiple Sclerosis society. For those of you who don't know what MS is - multiple sclerosis, a disease of the central nervous system affecting more young adult Australians than any other neurological condition


The MS Society Queensland facilitates programs and support for people with MS including a range of residential facilities, social support programs, accommodation support services, attendant care in private homes, involvement with regional centres and country link programs. These services are vital in order to maintain the independence and dignity of people with MS

I was able to raise a fair few hundred dollars for the MS society, which I was very happy about.
Out of 4000 people who rode today I was 230th on the leader board for sponsorship!!!
