Takin’ on Tassie
You are probably aware (it’s been all over the socials!) we are doing TASSIE in 2025 and we’ve locked in the dates. We’ll be starting in mid March, 15th - 17th and completing the journey on about the 11th of April. Obviously the exact dates cannot be locked in as yet due to various factors.

We’ve chucked it on a shirt and a hoodie to make things a whole lot easier!
Who did the design? It was a collaborative effort by three stroke survivors. Glenn, one of these stroke survivors is going to ride with me to each of the 3 points of Tassie!
You can follow him on Instagram. Like me he has his own story to tell on how he’s got to where he is today. I’ll sit down and have a yarn with him about his journey later on.
The question is: why are we doing this? A lot of people who know me will understand the reason. But, to take a walk in mine or Glenn’s shoes is another story. For this reason we are reducing the km’s ridden per day and increasing the conversations had (there’s another shirt for that) by more talks in schools, Rotaries, Lions clubs, pubs. Well, to pretty much anyone who will listen! We will speak about ‘the after life’, what it’s like to live with a disability, how it is so important to include everyone in every conversation, the walk at my pace attitude and knowing the FAST acronym?
Here is what you’ve been waiting for, the one the only the simple Tassie!
Also, if you have or know any contacts in Tassie please get in touch!
That’s it for now
From the 4 points team
Take care!
