BCBA’s Bike Ride for Brain Cancer a Fundraising Success

March 2019

BCBA has once again been supported by an incredible community of riders, sponsors and donors getting behind its two-day bike riding event. This year 48 riders took on the 240km challenge, raising $185,000 (and counting!) to support BCBA in advancing brain cancer research.

The 2019 event also featured a finishing line long luncheon at Calais Estate Winery, welcome relief for riders who endured 41 degree heat on their 100km final day journey.

A big thank you to all who contributed to the success of the event and ultimately supporting BCBA on the road to a cure.

Neurosurgeons take on the Bike Ride for Brain Cancer

February 2019

BCBA is proud to welcome three neurosurgeons to our 240km Bike Ride for Brain Cancer next month. Our BCBA Chair, Professor Michael Besser,  will be joined by his former senior registrar and current neurosurgical director of Gammaknife Surgery at Macquarie, Dr John Fuller and Professor Marcus Stoodley who is head of neurosurgery at Macquarie University Hospital. The three neurosurgeons are no strangers to a physical challenge; Stoodley is a keen cyclist, Besser is a veteran masters ironman and triathlete, and this year Fuller has qualified for entry into the L'Etape Championship in France held on one of the Tour de France stages.
We're thrilled to have the support of busy clinicians, raising money for BCBA! Support their efforts, make a donation:
