Sally's Ride started in 2002, when Sally Fletcher rode solo around Tasmania raising funds for mental health in Tasmania.

In 2009 Sally, in conjunction with the Rotary Club of Central Launceston made a decision to expand the event and create a community bike ride through the Tamar Valley, thus the Sally's Ride "Tamar Valley Cycle Challenge" was created.

This new event consists of 4 rides of varying lengths starting in Launceston and travelling through the Tamar Valley.

There is also a Corporate Team challenge with the winner taking home the Community Assist Corporate Challenge Shield.

This event will be targeted towards professional and recreational bike riders, as well as corporate businesses that are able to put together a small group to ride in the event.

Allowing us to not only market the event but also bring to the forefront the importance of mental health issues within our community.
