• Riders from all clubs invited to enter (for Free!).

• Free Entry Conditions (easy) - To increase awareness of the risks of riders developing Prostate and Breast Cancer, entrants are asked to agree to the following -

Male Riders - Prostate Cancer - There are over 26,000 new cases of Prostate Cancer each year in Australia. Early detection dramatically increases survival rate. To enter this event, male riders must agree to make a pledge to undertake the recommended Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) blood test every 2 years when they reach 45 years (earlier if there is a family history). Talk to your doctor. It’s free - covered by Medicare!

Female Riders - Breast Cancer - There are over 21,000 new cases of Breast Cancer each year in Australia. Early detection dramatically increases survival rate. To enter this event, female riders must agree to make a pledge to undertake the recommended two-yearly mammogram test when they reach 50 years (over 40 years if there is a family history). Cost is zero through Breast Screen Australia!

• Prizes - not only is the entry fee free...so are the prizes! No prizemoney - just the glory of podium presentations/photos and a handshake/kiss from our President (the kiss is optional!).
