Rick Faulks Charity Cycle
27 July - 29 August 2009
Rick Faulks was diagnosed with cystic fibrosis at birth. Throughout his life, Rick has always been an active sportsman and has participated in many different types of activities. Over time, as his lung capacity has diminished, Rick has discovered new sports to enjoy and took up cycling five years ago.
Rick’s goal is to cycle 1,800 km - from Cairns to Brisbane - in 34 days in July 2009 to raise funds for Cystic Fibrosis Queensland. He wants to show people living with cystic fibrosis that you can realise your goal and make the best use of the abilities that you have.
