THE BIKE FOR BIBLES MAN

 Back in 1984, Bob Forrest and his son Dave, and a mate of his son, did a ride from Sydney to Melbourne. It was to be the first of many many rides. It became known as BIKE FOR BIBLES, and the riders and roadies over the years have raised in excess of $10,000,000 for a variety of projects both here in Australia and overseas. I've been privileged to ride on 18 BFB rides and be a roadie for another 3. Thanks Bob for your part so many years ago. I have just taken Bob on the tandem, and he didn't fall off!

Betty Forrest (Bob's wife) with Fay and Bob. Great to see them and spend a bit of time. They are special people and have been used greatly through the Bike for Bibles program. Today, the BFB legend continues. (I mean both Bob and the organisation of Bike for Bibles!)
