AustraliaAn 82-year-old Australian cyclist named Bob Montgomery has died one day after completing a 5,300-kilometre charity bike ride across Australia to raise funds for motor neurone disease (MND) research. The journey, known as 'One Last Ride,' took place over six weeks and ended in his hometown of Bowral in New South Wales. Montgomery, who had previously completed four other charity bike rides for MND advocacy, was accompanied by his 18-year-old grandson, Tom Malcolm, during the final leg of the trip. His death came shortly after a celebratory event attended by family, friends, and supporters, where he expressed gratitude for the overwhelming community support. Montgomery's wife described his passing as unexpected but peaceful, and MND NSW plans to honor his legacy with a posthumous award and a memorial ride.
