SKCC sponsorship director: Kate Fitzpatrick

At TDF Night SKCC members had plenty of opportunities to meet our sponsors and take home some great prizes to try out PhysioHealth and Brighton Skoda services and products.

PhysioHealth General Manager, Stuart Blyth and Physiotherapist, Michael Coppo, were amongst the crowd. PhysioHealth donated five massage vouchers for the event’s raffle to give five lucky winners the opportunity to try a massage at one of five, and soon to become six, PhysioHealth practices in the Melbourne metropolitan area. Currently located in Essendon, Footscray, Glen Waverley, Nunawading and Williamstown, a new practice is only weeks away from being opened in Kew. The newly renovated practice, conveniently located on High Street, will have seven private treatment rooms and additional treatment spaces for physiotherapy, massage and other health services. PhysioHealth is committed to keeping athletes in the game through injury prevention and effective physiotherapy treatment and with another practice, centrally located, staying in the game is even easier.

Brighton Skoda wants SKCC members to know the luxurious Skoda driving experience. Skoda, a partner of this year’s Tour de France, is an ideal brand of vehicle for the discerning cycling enthusiast and on the SKCC Tour de France evening members had the opportunity to win a ‘Skoda for a Weekend’. But if that wasn’t enough to entice SKCC members into buying what is a luxurious European vehicle, without the price tag to match, Brighton Skoda are offering SKCC members an extended 5 year warrantee on Skoda vehicles. Showing that real connection to the cycling community, there were also plenty of musettes with riding water bottles from Brighton Skoda.

SKCC members also enjoyed the company of Jeff Proven from Neometro, our SKCC race sponsor and design-focused property development group and Alex Geers from health.com.au, our SKCC club sponsor and online health insurance provider.

We would also like to thank the generosity of prizes from Bellroy Elements Travel Essentials (please insert hyperlink to bellroy.com).   Made from “water-resistant all-weather leather,” and with water resistant zippers, the Element Range is meant for active, outdoors, adventurous folks – or those that just want more protection for their wallet’s contents.

Finally we would also like to thank Palais Theatre, Sufferfest and Bicycle Network for their contributions and support.
