Postie Bike Dash supports disadvantaged kids

Our intrepid supporter of Variety’s Postie Bike Dash, David Doherty of FN Tamworth (NSW) has committed to riding his 10th bone-jarring Dash as ‘David Red Dog Doherty’. Also joining him on behalf of First National once again will be David Small of FN Coffs Coast (Coffs Harbour, NSW). 

Variety’s Postie Bike Dash has enjoyed the sponsorship of FN Foundation for many years now, but a little known fact is that both of our riders must pay their own accommodation and fuel costs, plus take on the risks of a 1,500 km ride on older style Australia Post motor bikes.

Will you please support both David Doherty and David Small with their fundraising efforts? Every donation makes a difference and goes to the support of disadvantaged children.
