And so it is with a heavy heart but also with a great deal of relief , given my winter fitness condition, that I wish to inform you that the Daltini Randonnee will not be happening this year. 💔
Apparently Nick and Matt have other plans this winter, heading off on sunny European vacations to sip Aperol Spritz , nibble on pain au chocolat and pose for instagram photos in their budgie smugglers .
I will be blocking them from all social media and secretly hoping they both come back fat and unfit.
So please relax, don’t stress about that miserable winter training and have a couple of extra tim tams on the couch while you watch Le Tour.
All going well and if there is enough interest, I reckon we will have a crack at putting the ride back on again next year.
A huge thankyou once again to everyone who has been involved so far . We really appreciate it .
Of course, the official Tasmania Police Charity Ride will still be going ahead in November.
This year is the 20th edition. In 2007 we held our very first event to raise funds for Down Syndrome Tasmania and we will be doing it for them again this year.
So, while those other jet setting posers are busy strutting their stuff in Europe with the beautiful people, I will be here, training hard to get ready for November.
In lieu of making your contribution to our 1 day event this year, I welcome you to consider sponsoring myself or anyone else participating in the 3 day event. All donations will be greatly appreciated and are tax deductible. Please contact me if you wish to donate.
Thank you and we look forward to seeing you out the road soon.
✌️
