The Genesis RIDE DIPG Event finished up on Saturda

The Genesis RIDE DIPG Event finished up on Saturday, nearly 900kms from @qimrberghofer to Hunter Medical Research Institute. The team of John, Odin, and Lucas have raised almost $60,000 in this incredible feat, driving funds for research and raising awareness.

This epic event wouldn't be possible without the support of their team, Paul and Brendan, and sponsorship by ChemCert Training Group and @genesis_fitness_clubs . A huge thank you to the boys, to their support team, to our sponsors, to our supporters and everyone who cheered them on along the way!

Donations are still open via our @realgrassrootz page, link in bio!

They're almost there! As the team are smashing it out down the Pacific Hwy on their way to tonight's stop at Karuah, we want to let you know about their imminent arrival at Hunter Medical Research Institute tomorrow morning. Yep, they've ridden more than 700+ kms to date, have run a marathon and battled against some pretty unbelievable weather, and tomorrow they're finishing up. For those who are around, we are expecting to welcome the team to HMRI between 10 and 10:30 am Saturday morning, and we would love if you could be there to cheer them on.

This mammoth effort by Odin, John and Lucas has been made possible by the team at ChemCert, and the support of @genesis_fitness_clubs. If you'd like to donate - and help them reach their $40k goal as they roll over the line - you can use the link in bio.
