About
Founded in 2016, the ride to remember raises awareness of dementia and fundraising to help find a cure. Over $1.7m has been raised to date with all fundraising going to research.
 
The Bondi2Byron Ride to Remember, a 7 day cycle over 1,000kms to help raise awareness of dementia. All funds raised will go to fund vital research projects to help find a cure for dementia.

My Story
I love to ride a bike! Always have. I love being in the outdoors, spending time with like-minded but also different folk, and the sense of achievement that comes at the end of every ride, no matter what form it takes. 

I also love my Dad! He's always been in my corner, providing a steady and supportive hand while gently pushing me to make what felt like big decisions throughout life

Sadly, Dad was diagnosed with both Alzheimers and Vascular Dementia back in early 2023. Like many progressing on his same journey, it's been a story of ups and downs, as he (and we) learn to navigate this new path. Mum is right there alongside him.

As one way to show our support for him, (and Mum!), Jeremy and I have signed up to do the Bondi2Byron Ride to Remember, a 7 day cycle over 1,000kms (and almost 10,000m in elevation) to help raise awareness of dementia and to fund vital research projects for a cure.

Thank you in advance for your generous support. As an extra incentive, your donations will be matched by my employer Macquarie Group, through their generous staff matching scheme.
