Opera House to Parliament House
This Saturday (23/08/25), I am cycling from the Opera House to Parliament House (360km) in one day to raise funds towards cancer, specifically brain cancer, which recently touched one of our friends in the cycling community .
My own father was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer this year and I thought I would join four friends on this ride to support this cause as we desperately need major breakthroughs in brain cancer and of course, all types of cancer for that matter. Brain cancer remains one of the most devastating cancers and is one of the most under researched of all the cancer groups.
Please join us on the road to a cure by donating to drive brain cancer research forward.
We plan to leave Sydney at 3:30am and arrive in Canberra prior to 5pm.
Thank you in advance for your support.
Joel Xuereb.
All donations are of course tax deductible and a receipt will be emailed to you.
Thank you for your generosity
