Yesterday, Canberra-based broker Gerard Tiffen signed up to join the AMP Future2 Wheel Classic, a charity ride that aims to raise $100,000 to help disadvantaged young Australians through Future2.
The Tiffen & Co director will join a group of 40 cyclists, 18 of them riding the whole route from Sydney to Melbourne, and will be a part of the Bravien Financial team.
His teammates are Jeremy Gillman-Wells of Bravien Financial and Troy Reddick of Elders Belconnen.
Speaking about his upcoming cycle, Mr Tiffen said he was an avid cycler and was looking forward to the challenge.
“I have always been a great supporter of the Canberra community but decided to get more involved with a wider range of charities and events two years ago,” he said.
Tiffen & Co sponsored The Friendly Ride, an epic 5000 km journey from Cooktown to Canberra and a Tiffen & Co team have entered the SunSuper Ride to Conquer Cancer, a two day, 200km ride around country NSW.
The AMP Future2 Wheel Classic cyclists set off from Sydney’s Circular Quay at 7.30am on Saturday 15 September with their first stop 150km down the road in Bundanoon. They arrive in Melbourne on Sunday 23 September.
