19.01.2022 Day 4 Epic complete and now we celebrate the final day before reaching Yankaninna Station. A huge 164km ahead with 65% on mountain bikes. Yesterday we challenged the cyclists to King and Queen of the Mountain with Michael Lawton and Danielle, from Power of Property taking the crown. Here’s to a massive and emotional day ahead!

12.01.2022 All cyclists and crew arrived into Yankaninna last night at dark after a whole day of harsh headwinds and heat. Everyone had the energy and drive to complete the event by climbing the iconic Mt Rose. Thank you to all loved ones at home who supported everyone on the event and to all participants in Epic Impact for assisting in transforming the lives of young people at risk.

10.01.2022 Day 2 Epic Impact! The crew left Clare this morning and started heading north with a much slighter breeze than yesterday! Some cloud cover provided a much needed break from the sun. Thank you to Susie and team at Koffi & Kandi Cafe Laura for their hospitality. Clare Foodland for providing us with a top up on fresh produce and to the owners of our amazing accommodation this evening, Under The Mount.

09.01.2022 Day 3 Epic Impact. This morning we left Melrose and our fabulous accommodation- Under The Mount. With a bit of drizzle and wet roads, the cyclists worked through some slippery roads. The cyclists had a slight bike malfunction in the afternoon post-lunch at Teas On The Terrace Quorn. Tomorrow we set off from Melrose - fingers crossed for great weather!

06.01.2022 It was a big day at Yankaninna Station for the cyclists as they toured the property. They met with 2 teams and were impressed with the attitudes and positivity of all the young people. After a climb up Mt Rose, everyone had a chance to reflect upon their journeys.
