The Tamar Valley Cycle Challenge (TVCC) featuring Sally’s Ride is a major fundraising activity for RCCL. The original Sally’s Ride concept started in 2002, when Sally Fletcher rode solo around Tasmania to raise funds for mental health in Tasmania. 19 years on, it’s evolved to become the Tamar Valley Cycle Challenge and we’re proud to have raised around $60,000 between 2018 – 2020 for Cornerstone Youth Services, Speak Up Stay ChaTY and JCP Empowering Youth program, ‘The BEAST’, which targets at-risk youth.
TVCC caters for all ages and abilities from the 10 kilometre off-road Family Ride through to the 100 kilometre Sally’s Ride, all in and around the beautiful Tamar Valley. In 2020, the event also included a new category for e-bikes.
100% of all entry fees to Sally’s Ride are used to support proactive mental health and youth suicide prevention. For more information see sallysride.com.au and our Facebook page Tamar Valley Cycle Challenge featuring Sallys Ride.
