70 year old Lion cycles 4000 km Perth to the Sydney Lions International Convention

Sheila Howard

In an effort that leaves us lesser mortals reaching for the ‘heat rub’ and Epsom salts, courageous 70 year old Sheila has completed a 4000km cycling odyssey from Bunbury, Western Australia.

Sheila is joining the estimated 15,000 Lions from around the world in Sydney for its gathering to celebrate nearly 100 years of worldwide humanitarian service. Sheila arrived on Friday the 25th of June on a journey that was not only a physical challenge, but a humanitarian one where she was raising money for cancer research.

Follow this link to see how Prime Television reported the story as Sheila left Dubbo.
