WHAT IS 'TRIKE AROUND AUSTRALIA'?

'Trike Around Australia' is the brainchild of Garry and Doreen Fletcher, a remarkable couple passionate about raising much needed support for deserving Australian charities.

Rather than undertake a simple raffle or sponsored bike ride, Garry and Doreen have hatched their latest plot to support their selected charity, Arthritis Foundation of Australia (Phone: 1800 011 041).

Trike Around Australia - Arthritis Foundation Australia

WHAT MAKES THIS FUND RAISING EVENT DIFFERENT?

This fund-raising exercise is of an epic scale consisting of, but not limited to the following:

	Travelling around Australia riding a custom designed VW trike
	Visiting as many small country towns and schools as possible
	Giving talks about Arthritis Foundation of Australia
	Digital photos of the public on the trike printed instantly on a postcard for $5
	Compilation of a book about the experiences of Garry and Doreen during their expedition
	Production of a video diary for TV documentary
