Wednesday 20 January: The Advertiser

We rode up to the petrol station this morning (1.16km) to get a copy of The Advertiser. The story and the motivation behind my Ride for a Reason journey featured on the front page page! 

Tuesday 19 January: a tour of the Velodrome

It was just a short ride today (1.09km) so I wasn’t too tired for our tour of the Velodrome with superhero and Olympian Matt Glaetzer. We were so lucky to be invited. Matt showed us where he trained, we got to see under the track, stand in the middle while other cyclists were training on the track, and then we went up to the top of the track. It was very cool. We stayed on for the Adelaide Track League event where Matt was racing. He went really fast, it was very exciting.

Monday 18 January: A ride with Matt Glaetzer

It was so exciting to meet superhero and Olympic World Champion Matt Glaetzer today and ride a lap around Victoria Park (1.18km) together. He even had the same top and sleeves as me! 

Sunday 17 January: Grammys house

We rode a 7.9km round trip today to Grammys house because we heard she had made her delicious vanilla slice. It was yummy.

A message to my sponsors

A big THANK YOU to my sponsors, for your support of my Ride for a Reason journey. Your generous donations have helped me achieve my fundraising goal, and in turn support an amazing charity with their incredible work.
We are so humbled and grateful that we’re able to support the Cancer Council who supported our family last year when Grammy was having treatment for her Cancer. 
Please continue to follow my journey, I’m nearly halfway there already!
Thank you again, 
Love from Max 

Saturday 16 January: Grange to Henley and more

Back to the beach today for another ride (5.80km), while Dad ran next to me. Who was keeping up with who? ?  We saw some friends along the way, stopped to make a sand castle and even got an ice cream before we came home!

Friday 15 January: around the suburbs

A casual ride (6.08kms) around the suburbs today that turned into a quest to find our drink bottle, after it fell off our bike mid ride and without notice. We circled back and found it, what a mystery!

Thursday 14 January - Linear Park

An epic ride along Linear Park today, 7.81km’s in fact. We went past the billabong and the zoo, and talked about how important it is to “share the track” with other riders.

Max is riding for a reason this January

Last year,  my Grammy was a superhero and she fought cancer and won. It made me sad that she was tired and couldn’t play with me as much. She had treatment on Thursdays. I am raising money for cancer research and support so that other Grammy’s who are also superhero’s have the support they need.

Wednesday 13 January: Grange to Henley and return

Our ride today was 3.86km from Grange to Henley and back, with obligatory post bike ride cino. It was a bit cold and rainy but it was still fun.
