Great Bunnaloo Bike Ride We had a fantastic ride on Friday. Thanks to Bernard & Jenny James for hosting our end of ride lunch, cooking the barbecue and keeping all of the riders well fed and hydrated. Thanks to Jenny James, Barry Moyle, Anthony Couroupis, Karlie Verbeek and Kristy Dargan who rode with us on the day, and to John Douglas, Ann Stuart & Anne Brown who drove the support vehicles and manned our drink stops. A special thanks also to Constable Belinda Aimes from Moama Police who provided a police escort and excellent company throughout the ride. Without support like this, great experiences like these just couldn’t happen. Well done to all of our students who completed the 28km ride. Here’s looking forward to next years ride.
