Gday from Bernie

Hi, I’m Bernie!
I would like you to come on a journey with me!
I have been training 3-4 hours a day on my bike in Adelaide, Australia to prepare for a 4-month bike trek across the USA. The purpose of my ride is to raise awareness and much needed funds to help give poor and disadvantaged children and their families in Cambodia and Thailand hope and a bright future.

I will ride out of Downtown New York on the 17th June and will ride across the American Discovery Trail until I arrive in San Francisco in October 2009.

Why am I doing this?
Well it’s a bit like Forrest Gump’s run across the USA .... No, seriously, I would like to raise $750,000 to further the work of Home of the Open Heart which is a charity commited to caring for HIV+ babies and their families.

    G'DAY BERNIE. GARY PHILLIPS FROM COWANDILLA SOUTH OZ HERE. I HEARD YOU ON PETER GOERS RADIO SHOW TONIGHT AND WAS SHOCKED TO HEAR YOU'D HAD ALL YOUR GEAR STOLEN .... NOT TO MENTION YOUR BIKE AS WELL !!!!! SURELY WHEN THE PEOPLE THAT STOLE IT REALISED WHAT AN IMPORTANT THING THAT YOU ARE DOING THAT THEY WOULD'VE RETURNED IT SOMEHOW. UNBELIEVABLE MATE !!!! ANYWAY I HOPE YOU GOT THE MONEY I SENT YOU AND THAT IT HELPS IN A SMALL WAY TO GET YOU BACK ON THE ROAD AGAIN. "ON THE ROAD AGAIN" WHAT A GREAT SONG THAT WAS FROM THE 60'S !!!!!

    THIS IS THE 2ND TIME I'VE TYPED THIS AS I DIDN'T UNDERSTAND OR SELECT A PROFILE LAST TIME.
    I'LL JUST SELECT ANONYMOUS EVEN THOUGH MY NAME'S IN THIS MESSAGE !!!

    ONCE AGAIN MATE BELIEVE IN YOUR " MISSION " AND BELIEVE IN THIS WORLD. US GOOD "BLOKES AND SHIELAS" HAVE IT ALL OVER PEOPLE THAT HAVE TO STEAL OFF OTHERS. I APOLOGISE TO ANY WOMEN READING THIS FOR USING THE WORD SHEILA. IT'S A WORD I WOULD NORMALLY NEVER USE BUT IT SEEMED TO FIT ON THIS OCCASION. A LITTLE BIT OF AUSSIE SLANG FOR A HOMESICK BERNIE !!!!!

    HOPEFULLY YOU GET TO READ THIS BERNIE ..... YOU'LL SOON HAVE THAT WIND IN YOUR FACE AGAIN MATE ....... ALL THE BEST FROM gAz
