Thank you Suit Up and Riders

28 Nov 2011 10:32 AM

Another great Suit Up and Ride took place at Waterfront City in the Docklands last Friday. Cadel, his wife Chiara, Matt Goss and Clare Bowditch joined 56 teams of the quirkiest clad cyclists ever seen in a race against the clock.

Thanks to the wonderful fund raising efforts of Fox FM's Matt and Jo, plus the generous donations from our teams, we have raised a substantial amount of money that will make a significant difference to the work Orygen Youth Health does with young people with a mental illness. The exact amount will be announced later in the week.

We couldn't do it without our fantastic sponsors: City of Melbourne, Waterfront CIty, NewQuay, MMG and Frank Health Insurance.

Special thanks to Ernst & Young who raised over $20,000 for Suit Up and Ride and OYH through their treadmill challenge, auctions and the delicious Maggie Beer BBQ last Friday. Thank you Maggie too for the yummy condiments and ice cream.

Photos will be added later this week, some have already been posted on our facebook page (thanks to The Wheeler Magazine), and you can check out the team results here.

Once again, a sincere thank you for joining us at Suit Up and Ride, and your generous support, we look forward to seeing you all again next year.

Thank you to all of our generous sponsors...
