In late 1989, member of the Joint Action Group and Fitness Leader, Sonja Wilson, had registered for the Great Victorian Bike Ride and was looking for sponsors. This photo of Sonya in front of the Arthritis Centre sign on the grounds of the Royal Talbot Rehabilitation Hospital appears on page 16 of the Vol 2 No 4, November 1989 issue of the Arthritis Foundation of Victoria's quarterly newsletter, Arthritis Update. It accompanies a brief article titled, "Sponsorship please". The article states that Sonya, a Fitness Leader with the AFV, is seeking sponsors for her participation in the Great Victorian Bike Ride, to be held in December that year. The ride would be taking place from Yarrawonga to Melbourne, and Sonya would be fundraising to benefit people with arthritis.
