Event: The Great Ride for Heart 2010
Event Date: 1/2/2010

Hi there!

Welcome to the Bruce Barclay website. I am a self confessed "Sport Billy" who enjoys nothing more than an adventure filled challenge somewhere in our great country. I have conquered Coast to Coast, so I thought that North Cape to Bluff would be a great place to start for the next episode!!

In the first two weeks of February, I will be joining a group of like minded sports nuts in an epic cycle ride that will cover the length of New Zealand. That is Cape Reinga to Bluff - 2129 km in 13 days!

Our aim is to boost awareness of heart disease prevention and help raise $1 million for the Heart Foundation's Cardiovascular Research Fund.
Every cent we raise will go directly towards an essential chair in new preventive heart health research at the University of Auckland, which will benefit all New Zealanders.

Along the way we will engage with locals and stage fundraising events in selected towns to raise awareness of heart health from Cape Reinga to Bluff.
I need your support to complete my mission of fundraising $10,000 myself!

I will do all the difficult stuff by training hard (rain hail and shine), eat like a racehorse and push the pedals the length of the country. What I really need though is YOU to help me make a difference to the hearts of New Zealanders.

Please could you sponsor me?

I will keep you informed all the way through training, lead up and the actual event on my blog so you know exactly what is happening.

Please select the "Make a donation" button below. It's simple, fast and totally secure and the money goes directly to the Heart Foundation's bank account.

If you live in New Zealand your donation is tax deductible and a receipt will be issued. The more you donate the more tax you will be able to claim back!!

So please help me today! Pass it on to your family and friends as the future heart health of every New Zealander depends on it!!

Many thanks for your support

Bruce
