More than 35 property industry players including former Colliers International chairman Bill McHarg, Jones Lang LaSalle managing director Andrew Wood and Becton chief executive Hamish MacDonald will ride their push bikes from Canberra to Melbourne to raise money for the Starlight Foundation and Monash Newborn Intensive Care Unit.

Called the Chain Reaction Challenge, the riders are aiming to raise more than $500,000 – surpassing the $475,000 raised in 2007 when the race was ridden for the first time. Two time world triathlon champion Emma Carey will accompany the boys through the challenge.

Other riders to compete in the challenge include KordaMentha director Berrick Wilson, ISPT director Daryl Browning, as well as staff from Orchard Funds Management, PricewaterhouseCoopers, CB Richard Ellis and Westpac.
