CTV > Shane O'Bree and Michael Firrito 'ride off'

Collingwood’s Shane O’Bree joined Kangaroo defender Michael Firrito at the Lexus Centre on Tuesday to help promote Variety’s annual radiothon.

O’Bree and Firrito challenged each other on the exercise bikes, and there was extra feeling for the players given they will be facing off in the big round 16 clash at Telstra Dome on Friday night.

The 3AW Variety radiothon, set to take place on Wednesday 23 July from 6am-midnight, has been running for six years and has raised over $1,200,000.

The money raised is used to buy new bikes and helmets for disadvantaged Victorian children.

Last year over $300,000 was raised. Variety presents the bikes during November and December to children at venues around Victoria.
