The Cable Beach Club Gibb River Road Mountain Bike Challenge is a remarkable five day 700+ km, socially competitive, team relay event raising money and community awareness for charity by tracing the Kimberley’s iconic stock route, the Gibb River Road.
This year 6 keen Cable Beach Club Resort staff (aka Lion Racing) are ready to take on the rough red roads by push bike from Derby to Kununurra with the determination to raise money for charity – in particular Police Legacy which is a concept that has grown to an organization caring for 134,000 widows and 1,900 children of deceased servicemen. In addition to the Police Legacy, Lion Racing’s charity of choice is the Kyle Andrews Foundation. Initiated by a young Broome boy undergoing treatment for Leukemia in Perth Western Australia, Kyle had a dream of bringing some of his young friends from the ward to Cable Beach in Broome so that, in his words, “they might feel better”. Even though Kyle is no longer with us, his foundation continues to find ways to make this happen.
This year K2O Kimberley To Ocean is supporting the Cable Beach Club Resort Lion Racing team by donating a luxurious Lower Deck King Twin cabin on one of their 8 day Kimberley Discovery Expeditions- valued at $13,090.
K2O have been operating out of Broome along the far North coast of Western Australia for over 4 years and offer a maximum of only 12 guests the most intimate and exclusive cruise of a lifetime. Cruises range from 8, 10 or 14 days and focus on many activities including, swimming, fishing, mud crabbing, snorkeling, diving, hiking and Aboriginal art just to name a few.
The winner will be drawn at The Swinging Arm Bar, El Questro, Thursday 6pm, 26/5/10 and the results published in the Broome Advertiser.
