Here's a few happy snaps from this year's Snowy Ride
http://snowyride.org.au/. I didn't take many photos this year, but here's a few.
The Snowy Ride raises money for the Steven Walter Foundation
http://www.stevenwalterfoundation.org.au/ which provides funds for children's cancer research and treatment. They got it wrong though and gave the brand new Honda VFR1200 to someone else...
This year 3115 riders took part, and raised between $250,000 and $300,000 over the weekend.
I rode 1762kms over 4 days: there, back, the Snowy Ride on Saturday and a loop through Cabramurra and Khancoban for fun on Sunday
. Nothing too heavy
.
