Mikic foundation launched

Following the tragic death of promising young New South Wales, Australia cyclist Ben Mikic last Friday, a foundation has been established at the request of the 15 year-olds' parents to be known as the Ben Mikic Foundation for Young Cyclists. The foundation will aim to further educate road users and support young cyclists pursuing their dreams.

"Ben himself dreamt of doing the Tour de France so some of the money raised through this Foundation might help other young cyclists like Ben achieve such a dream," said foundation spokesperson Michele O'Byrne.
