My target 3000 kms

I'm fundraising for a great cause!

Once again, I’m taking on the Breakthrough T1D One Ride to raise vital funds for type 1 diabetes research! On 21 November 2026, I’ll be cycling 160kms through the picturesque Barossa Valley - pushing myself physically while riding for a powerful cause. Each year it is a little bit harder, but it does not compare to the challenges facing a person living with T1D!

Type 1 diabetes can affect anyone, at any time. Every day, 8 Australians are diagnosed. It’s a relentless 24/7 condition, requiring up to 180 extra decisions daily just to stay safe and healthy. As a physician, I have shared in the hardships and at times extreme sadness, encountered by my patients and their families. I have also got to witness the benefits in new treatments and technologies, that research dollars have been instrumental in developing.

Breakthrough T1D is the largest funder of type 1 diabetes research in the world, driving life-changing breakthroughs for the 140,000+ Australians living with T1D.

I call on your generous support again to help move us closer to a world without type 1 diabetes. Thank you for your ongoing encouragement and support!

Recovery beers after a training ride with my team mate Deano!
Bring on the warmer, longer days so we can give the training a real nudge :)

The preparation begins

Sunday 12th Jul
I'm excited to think that I have another opportunity to join this year's OneRide event scheduled in November.
Even more excited that my mate Dean has volunteered to join me again. 
Let the training begin!
