Three Day Bike Ride 2011
Eighth Annual Giant Steps Bike Ride
23 - 25 March, 2012
The Giant Steps 3 Day Bike Ride is an annual event in which about 40 cyclists will ride together to raise money for Giant Steps. This year the ride will be in Tasmania. The course was over 282 km climbing 3,650 vertical metres.
We thank all of our donors who sponsor the ride. Over the past 7 years we have raised in excess of $1.67 million. Our target for 2012 is to raise $200,000 towards the $2.9 million needed to cover the gap between $5.7m that it will cost to run Giant Steps and $2.8m that will be received from the government.
The money raised from the bike rides has enabled Giant Steps to erect three playgrounds, convert a derelict building into a library and continue to improve the services provided to students and their families. It also facilitated the establishment of a post-school program and an extension to the Early Learning Building.
