Postie Bike Challenge

Got the following message on the Deauville Owners Forum, worthy of more exposure...

Hi Folks,

My husband, Ron, and I have both been keen motorcyclists for more than 30 years and, after many years of procrastinating about participating in the “Postie Bike Challenge”, we've decided to take part this year! You can read more about the “Postie Bike Challenge” on the following website: Postie Bike Challenge.

The spirit of the event calls for the support of those less well off than us and, in keeping with this, we will each donate the money we raise from selling our Postie Bikes at the completion of the Challenge to a registered charity. We have chosen “Habitat for Humanity” as the benefactor because of their well established domestic and international programs of providing safe, decent and affordable shelter to underprivileged families in need. You can read more about “Habitat for Humanity” on their Australian website: Habitat for Humanity.

This year’s Challenge will cover more than 3,300 kilometres on a route through outback Queensland, western New South Wales, the Snowy Mountains, the Victorian Alps and the Yarra Valley.

I've setup a website so that our family, friends and sponsors can follow our preparations and progress - see see Ron & Kathy Leslie's 2009 Postie Bike Challenge.
