In memory of our beautiful Elizabeth
In November 2021, we sadly lost our youngest daughter, Beth, to a rare and aggressive form of cancer. From when the cancer was discovered to her passing was less than three weeks, and she was only eight months old.
During that traumatic time, the Ronald McDonald House provided us a room so we could stay close to the hospital which allowed us to navigate the COVID 19 restrictions at the time and ensure we could be with Beth as much as possible. Most importantly, it allowed both of us to be by her side at the end. Last year due to the generosity of our friends and family, we were able to meet our fundraising target and sponsor a room at Parkville Ronald McDonald House. Throughout the year of sponsorship, we've also worked to donate blankets and helpful items to Ronald McDonald house to provide each family with a touch of love and comfort in a hard time. We would love to continue sponsoring a room in Beth's name so that we can continue providing support, love and comfort to families who find themselves staying at the house.
On the 8th of March, the weekend after her Birthday, we will be riding a combined 262km - one kilometre for every precious day Beth was with us. This will be an epic challenge for us to undertake but will never be as hard as losing our beautiful Beth. Any support in achieving our goal would be greatly appreciated as we look to honour her memory.

Thursday 6th Mar
With Saturday the 8th fast approaching, can we first express our gratitude to everyone who has donated and supported us so far. We greatly appreciate all the support we receive towards honouring Beth's memory and helping other families going through difficult times.
To provide some further information for Saturday's challenge - we will be kicking off the riding at 9am AEDST and taking it in turns every hour to ride a leg of the 262km total target. We'll be using ZWIFT and will likely be riding the Tick Tock route to complete the kms. If you have ZWIFT yourself, feel free to jump in and ride with us!
We have also made special jerseys for our attempt this weekend, including one for Millie who will be cheering us on throughout the day. We'll provide updates on the Beths Gift Instagram page, as well as our personal accounts so feel free to check in throughout the day to see how far we've gone (and how far we still have to go!)
Once again, thank you to everyone who has shown their support. We truly could not do it without you all.
