  • A normal guy completing the entire tour route?

    We’ve all watched our Tour de France heroes on TV and marvelled at their amazing feats of endurance and super-human aerobic capacity. But, is it possible for a normal everyday person to complete the course? That’s the challenge facing Damian Watson, a normal everyday guy from Melbourne, attempting to tackle the entire 2009 course to see if it is possible for a normal person to conquer. Along the way Damian will raise funds and awareness for Crohn's and Colitis Australia (CCA).

    Crohn’s is a gastrointestinal disorder causing inflammation of the bowel. There is currently no cure and the cause is unknown.
