IT was a three gruelling days for the cyclists in the Tour Duchenne riding from Sydney to Canberra to raise money for the Muscular Dystrophy Foundation.
But the boys at Tudor House did their bit to help when the cyclists stopped to have morning tea at the school on Tuesday morning.
The 23 riders were welcomed by cheering as the boys lined the driveway in anticipation of their arrival.
After a quick break and a bite to eat, the riders spoke to the boys about their journey and answered questions about their bikes and the ride.
A donation of over $230 was given to the riders to help their cause.
Tudor House registrar Jock Bidwell said the boys were very excited about meeting the riders, as the school recognised the importance of cycling.
"Most of the boys have bikes. We encourage the boys to grab a helmet and go for a ride around the school," he said.
"The boys are keen to look at the bikes."
Bidwell said the school also had plan to build a bike track for the students around the perimeter of the school's property.
The 'Team Jamie' riders finished in Canberra on Wednesday.
Muscular dystrophy is a neuromuscular genetic disorder which affects 1 in 300 Australians.
Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy affects mainly boys and is diagnosed around the age of three or four.
Tour manager Frances Lemon said as Duchenne affects mainly boys, the fact that Tudor House was a boys school and along the way made it the perfect place to pull in for a pit stop and have a chat with the students.
