Olsson’s Sponsorship
The phone rang early yesterday morning just as I was going out the door to work and it was a friend in town who had Charles Olsson in her shop and he was asking her about the ride4acure trek. Charles (and his Marketing Manager David in the support wagon) had just spent three days riding with Tony Abbot on the ‘Pollies Pedalling’ bike ride from the Gold Coast to Sydney, which is coming through this area. The long and short is ride4acure now has Olsson’s sponsorship and they’re providing hydration tablets called ‘Horse Tranz’ , this was syncronistic as the night before Esther, Joe and I were sitting around the kitchen table talking about this very thing, crossing the country and horses drinking different water types. Horse Tranz is also an electrolyte replacement supplement and is available online
http://www.farmservices.com.au/product.php?productid=1002 or enquiries to http://olssonpacific.com/ additionally Olsson’s have also supplied us with skin care products from the http://optherapy.com.au/ skin care range. We will need it as working outside all day comes at a cost! Trekking in winter is hard on anyone, our skin will cop it for sure with wind and cold.
A key part of our skin care is the application of sunscreen throughout the day. All year round we need to use sunscreen when out in the sun for longer than ten minutes when the UV is above 3. Which is most of the year for us guys in this area. But stands for most Australians.
