A huge thankyou not only for working so Michele could move house before leaving for India but also for donating her wages to our cause. We have met some amazing people so far and you have all been generous with your time and money. Between us we have raised enough for 4 women (we hope) to receive treatment in India.
THANKYOU ALL & WATCH THIS SPACE!
We are a group of breast cancer women and friends who travelled to India to help raise funds and awareness about breast cancer and life after cancer. We travelled on Royal Enfield motorcycles and 4 wheel drives, leaving from Leh in Ladakah Sept 2010.Our Indian friend Ritu is the founder of Highways Infinite www.highwaysbeyondcancer.org and we travelled with her, participating in workshops and breast screening.

Micheles story
My name is Michele and I am 52, I have 2 children Ryan 31 and Jade 27.I live in Sydney and have my own small business. In 2005 I was diagnosed with breast cancer, after 8 months of treatment, I consider myself very fortunate, the cancer was detected early.
This experience has taught me to live and make the most of every oppurtunity. Instead of thinking about it or putting it off for tomorrow.
I have always had a passion for motor bikes and after learning about a group called amazon heart thunder I proceeded to get my riders licence.In May 2009 I participated with this amazing group of women, riding harley's from Brisbane to Sydney, raising money for breast cancer. Through this experience I have had the oppurtunity to meet so many wonderful, inspirational people.
I am so excited to be able to join some of these women in this amazing adventure in India. Our focus is to raise awareness for early detection of cancer and to demonstrate an atititude of positivity. As well as promoting this we also need funds to help with the treatment to save lifes.
Every little bit helps.
Thank you to all that are following our journey and to all that have rallied to this cause.
