Doin’ it For the Kids! After leaving the Coffee Club on the banks of the Nepean on April 9, a team of local cyclists known as the Cycling Cerebellums pedalled their way – a total distance of 920km – to Melbourne. It was a somewhat weary yet elated team who arrived at Brighton Beach seven days later. Even more impressive than the actual riding was the fact that the group set out to raise $10,000 to fund vital research, support and prevention projects for children with neurological conditions.
