Words from cyclists who took part in the epic ride:

Firstly, I would like to say a huge thank you to both Ross and Charles for making this life changing experience possible for me, it was really your words of support and encouragement that got me through this challenge!

Thank you also to the team as well for really putting in all and getting us through the cycle safely and more importantly to the support crew, you guys were terrific and it was a huge highlight to see the van and you all each break point.

Regards and great efforts all.

Rebecca Tee
Executive Assistant/Office Manager

Thanks to you all, especially to Charles and to Ross. It was a magnificent thing to have done for me personally and something I won't ever forget. I hope we've made some difference. It's a great cause to go through some pain for! Thanks for all your support and dedication to making it happen. It will be charity that I will forever keep close to my heart.  

Regards  Alistair

For those XL employees who didn't take part in the ride, they had fun making  balloon animals and learning how to do card and sponge ball tricks to present to the children out at The Children's Hospital at Westmead.
