Short Circuit Cancer MTB Event - Sydney

Brent Collier / 27.01.2011

Every five minutes another Australian is diagnosed with cancer. That’s 288 people that will be diagnosed today. Let’s make today the day, anyone diagnosed with this disease, knows they will survive it.

Each year the Sutherland Shire hosts the Relay for Life run, giving the community the chance to actively take part in raising funds and awareness for the Cancer Council.

Brent Collier, of Peak Health in Gymea Bay has participated in Relay for Life for the past several years, but this year decided to include a fundraiser within a fundraiser, to raise additional funds and bring the concept to a host of new participants.

Short-Circuit Cancer, which will raise funds for the Relay for Life Cancer Council initiative, will see the Sutherland Shire mountain biking community along with family, friends, corporate and other social teams hitting the Royal National Park trails for six-hours of tag team riding to raise funds, with a target of $10,000.
