Where are we?


So, where the bloody hell is Tamworth and the New England North West?
The map below gives you some idea of the area the Tamworth based helicopter covers.
It looks like its about a third of the size of New South Wales. I'm informed that the land area of the New England North West is around 80,000 square kilometers.
Big isn't it? That's roughly equivalent to half the size of England or Texas in the US.
The 200,000 people who live in the region depend on the helicopter to get them to a hospital in the case of an emergency. The distances from homes and workplaces can be quite long and/or isolated and that first hour of medical attention can be life saving.And who knows? You might be travelling through the region and who can ever tell when they just might need fast medical care.

The easiest way to sponsor a rider is to transfer funds directly from your account to the chopper account

Account Name: The Barossa Valley to Tamworth Charity Bike Ride

BSB: 032 621Account Number: 370 633

Reference:
obviously place the name of the rider you want to sponsor in the reference field.
