Team Hippo

Team Hippo would like to thank all those who came along Cycle Co. Spin Studio last Friday to help us crush cancer. It was a fun night for everyone and a great little training session for the upcoming Cancer200 ride. We also had some great prizes gifted to us generously by the following General Public Food Co, My Ride Osborne Park and alchemy saunas.

A huge thank you for Cycle Co. Spin Studio for helping us put on this event.

Today we have reached over $21,000 for the year which is huge and we are so grateful for all the support.

Lots of love Team Hippo.

For Naomi, for everyone affected by cancer.

Team Hippo, are throwing our first Shindig this weekend. After our Team Captain Ash rode 2200km across Australia in 6.5 days, now is the time for a pint to celebrate the achievement. We’ll have games, raffles and prizes. If you’d like to pop in and support the fundraising efforts, all are welcome 🥰

Thanks again for all your love and support on our mission to crush cancer.

As only Ash can, he ventured out solo today to try and get as much from himself as he could.
The incredible journey of 2,213 km in 6 days and 14 hours from Saturday morning in Trigg in the clutches of a cyclone to exhaustion on the other side of the Nullarbor just before Port Augusta on the side of the road. Ash made sure that every last drop of mental and physical battery was depleted.
This has taken a superhuman effort and the team are incredibly proud of Ash and are all recovering in Port Augusta.
The support in followers, messages, and most incredibly donations has been truly incredible and we can’t wait to continue building on these efforts.

This isn’t the end of Team Hippo, only the beginning.

Introducing the last and definitely least welcome members of the crew, the horseflies. They come in the hundreds, bite hard and can pe*****te from all angles (picture 3).

Introducing the second crew member, Kaitlyn. Brings endless infectious laughter sometimes driven by delirium. Mostly in charge of sunscreen application, driving and endless support for Ash.

Introducing the support crew. The first one silly enough to say yes to Ash was David. By day he’s in charge of snack(ing), water, and electrolytes. By night he’s keeping Ash company on the dark and lonely roads or fishing for trees.

It was so nice meeting you Cycling Nomads.

Thank you so much for hospitality and helping fuel Ash for his ride into the evening.

Safe travels

Team Hippo

Day 4 of the Trigg to Mt Beauty Cycle. Ash has faced some big challenges, but has also scored some big wins. It’s only going to be more challenging as the days continue but Ash’s stamina to push through is admirable.
