From 5-12 September 2009, 50 cyclists and support crew will tackle a gruelling 1600 kilometre cycle through Queensland in only eight days. It's our way to raise funds for cancer research and remember our mate Adam Smiddy who lost his life to melanoma.
More than 100,000 Australians are diagnosed with cancer each year and too many good lives are lost to this devastating disease. We are united by a passion to make a difference.
I invite you to join the fight against cancer. Support our team as they tackle one of Australia's most demanding endurance events knowing your donation goes directly towards world-class research which will one day save lives.

In 2008 a camera crew followed the Smiddy Challenge from start to finish. They documented the ride, the riders, the communitties and characters involved.
Now you can view this video to see what an inspiring event the Smiddy Challenge has become.
