IAN AND SUE
Our entry, will be driven by Ian and navigated by Ian's (long suffering) wife Sue. The car is a 1987 Nissan Terrano, after retiring the zed and looking to enjoy a "little" more comfort over the long days of Trek. While Trek4Kidz is not a speed event, it will be covering some very challenging roads and a vast majority of the route is well off the main roads so all vehicles need to be well prepared and suitable for some interesting excursions “off the beaten track”.
As such, CAR240 is well prepared with all the needed safety and reliability features and offers a unique and noticeable vehicle that is highly visible wherever it goes.
THE ROUTE
Starting in Bathurst in central western NSW and heading out to Dubbo, Narrabri, Tamworth (where we have a layday), Tenterfield, Coffs Harbour and finish in Port Macquarie. The route covers a lot of "interesting" roads and towns and we are looking forward to sharing a few experiences along the way.
COSTS /SUPPORTERS
All entrants cover their own costs of vehicle, fuel, entry, accommodation, food etc. and then fundraise via various activities to raise as much as possible for the Starlight Foundation.
Even while we were off and not running during Covid, we still managed to donate a good sum to Starlight and, as we now get back to the 2024 run, we are hoping to add even more for the Starlight Children’s Foundation.
Can you help?
