Mellissa Ings with her riding suit emblazoned with her husband David’s Uncles name – Michael Rawlin.
Mellissa Ings will embark on a 200km ride from Olympic Park in Sydney to Windsor to raise funds for the Conquer Cancer organisation next Saturday October 11.
Mellissa said “Michael loved bike riding, it was his life. He had to go through all the pain and sickness of Cancer so I will push my legs through the pain barrier to raise money for the cause and particpate in his memory.”
Michael passed away in October 2012 and she said “Cancer took his life way too early”.
So far Mellissa has raised just over $3000 and donations can still be made at http://sy14.conquercancer.org.au/site/TR/Events/Sydney2014?px=1408098&pg=personal&fr_id=1143
Mellissa said she hopes to get the job done and that training from Harden to Bowning and back will help.
