Hi, I am joining a team to ride for 12 hours to raise funds for MND and a great Cams team member,. Murray, a rider who has completed the 3 Peaks Challenge three times. That's a ride of 235Km over Mt Buller, Mt Hotham and Falls Creek. I've only done it once and only have immense respect for anyone with Murrays ability and grit. Please help us make a positive difference is the lives of people impacted by MND. No donation is too small and any support you can provide is greatly appreciated. What is Motor Neurone Disease? You have nerves in your brain and spinal cord that control how your muscles work. These are called motor neurones. MND is a disease that affects the motor neurones. With MND, motor neurones gradually stop telling your muscles how to move. When muscles no longer move, they become weak, which can also lead to stiffness and loss of muscle mass (wasting). MND is a life-shortening illness that can affect how you walk, talk, eat, drink and breathe. This is usually different for each individual. You may not get all of the symptoms and there is no set order in which they happen. The disease will progress, which means symptoms will get worse over time. For some people this can be rapid, for others it is slower. There is currently no cure for MND.
