"
My friends are used to seeing me on the bicycle each day.
Now I can put all those kilometres to a great cause. My goal is to bike ride 500 kms by the end of June.
Prevention is better than cure, so if my efforts can help to teach more children to live a healthier life, it's worthwhile."
Professor Ian Frazer, 2006 Australian of the Year
