About the Ride In 2010, Graham and four mates will embark on their cross-Nullarbor challenge when they ride from the WACA Ground in Perth to the Adelaide Oval – a staggering 2,700 kilometres. The team will leave Perth on May 9 and plan to arrive into Adelaide on May 29. This year, Graham has chosen children’s charity HeartKids SA as beneficiary of the funds he raises from the 2010 ride. HeartKids SA supports children with congenital or acquired heart disease and their families. Graham has chosen HeartKids so that he can help with the huge financial burden placed on families to access their child’s life-saving medical treatment. The 2010 Tour de Heart is the third ride in four years by Graham, who each ride has been joined by good mate and cycling enthusiast Andrew Eime. In 2008, the pair rode from Mount Kosciusko to Lake Eyre and in the inaugural ride in 2007 conquered Alice Springs to Adelaide. Both previous rides saw Graham raise significant funds for cardiac research.
