At our recent Eric Mather event we announced our support for this event which is a major fund raiser for ANZUP cancer trials group. They co-ordinate and fund research into Prostate, Testicular, Bladder and Kidney cancer.

This event is in it’s fourth year and typically has had over 300 mainly corporate competitors. ANZUP has kindly waived the registration fee for teams representing cycling clubs affiliated to Cycling NSW but each team is expected to organise it’s own fund raising effort. This is a terrific cause and very relevant to a great many of us. On top of that it will be a lot of fun with a whole range of prizes and great riders support.
