READ NOWAilie said riding 100km in one day had always been a goal of hers.
“I have been training since May 2016,” she said. “Most of it has been with my dad, but recently we borrowed a resistance trainer, which has meant I can also train in our living room without the need for my dad to always be with me.
“My least favourite training was when it was 6C and the wind cut straight through my gloves and felt like knives.”
Ailie and her dad, Rod Clark, will set off from Whitfords train station and cycle to Mandurah.
Last year, Ailie ran a marathon in one week, raising more than $1300 for Compassion Australia.
