Jim Brownett with 101.3FM presenter Tash Lawton

Jim Brownett came in to talk to Tash on the Ignition Youth program (Monday 4 p.m.) about his epic bike ride from Sydney to Brisbane. Part of the Great Australian Bike Ride, this leg took 18 days, and although Jim did tell us the distance, we were far too “traumatised” to remember!

Jim took up cycling to recover his health after doctors told him it would cost him his life if he continued with his stressful way of living.

Not only has Jim a new accolade to tuck under his belt, he also helped raise much needed funds for Mental Health.
