Murray to Moyne Cycle Relay April 2009Michelle Ferris

The annual Murray to Moyne Cycle Relay, scheduled 4-5th April 2009, is a 24 hour team relay that covers a distance of approximately 520 kilometres, starting from the locations of Mildura, Swan Hill and Echuca.   This relay was originally run in 1987 to raise money for the Port Fairy Hospital.  Raising $10,000 then, this event has grown into a significant annual pilgrimage for many an-enthusiastic rider with 1628 participating in 2007 - raising an incredible $1.28 million for Hospitals and Health Related Organisations in Victoria, New South Wales and South Australia.

Dual Olympic Silver Medalist (1996 Atlanta Olympic Games and 2000 Sydney Olympic Games) Michelle Ferris, along with her family, has decided to put together a team for the 2009 Murray to Moyne Cycle relay - Team Learning 4 Life.  Michelle is currently a 3 time World Masters Champion and still holds the Olympic record for the women’s sprint event.  Michelle is now enjoying retirement and using her past experience to help young and old riders to enjoy their cycling.  She, along with her family and friends making up the team, have decided to raise their funds for Learning 4 Life. The Autism condition is close to their hearts as Michelle’s nephew has traits on the Autism Spectrum. They are keen to support the work at Learning 4 Life and see as many children as possible be able to receive the therapy needed and reach their full potential. All monies raised will be going straight to the children and families in need.
