Fundraising in Convict 100, 2012

By Tristania - Posted on 03 March 2012

Hey guys (and gals?) I'm competing in Convict 100 this year (Dirtworks) for the first time. But then again, I'm only 18, so really it has to be my first time!

Anyway, this year, I'm doing it in attempt to raise money for the Salvation Army, and hoping to raise $5 per kilometre I ride. As it's actually 104km, my goal is to raise $520 this year.

My fundraising page can be seen here: http://www.everydayhero.com.au/tristan_white

Although, I'm not expecting anyone here to sponsor me themself (though if you'd LIKE to, go ahead, I certainly welcome it!), I'm more telling you to encourage other keen cyclists to take part in fundraising before their various "hardcore" events. With the floods becoming epidemic in NSW we have more need than ever for organisations such as the Salvos, giving us even more reason to raise as much money as possible for worthwhile charities. I hope you can think about this next time you enter a "little" race, whenever that may be.

Best regards,
Tristan White
