“I can comment on the Coast to Coast event with 2 views. As a family man I am amazed that Scott and Dave, who have had their fair share of bad luck, are taking on this amazing challenge to help other families with similar circumstances to their own. My second view is from my cycling background. Two novice cyclists riding 3000km in 30 day is an impressive achievement. Elite cyclist from around the world train all their lives to compete in events like the Tour de France which is typically 3500km in 20 days. My hat is of to them. Good luck guys. I hope the Australian public gets behind this great cause!”
