Unit's two-time 4X World Champion and BMX Olympic hopeful Caroline Buchanan will feature in a series of photos to support the launch of a major Australian women's sports awareness campaign.
Caroline will be joined by a number of high profile women sports stars including swimmers Stephanie Rice and Leisel Jones, high-jumper Petrina Price and aerial skiing Olympic gold medalist Lydia Lassila.
The photos will be featured in the February issue of Women's Health magazine.
Women's Health editor Felicity Harley said, "for too long women's sport had not attracted the support or sponsorship given to its male counterparts."
The Sydney Cricket Ground will help launch the campaign with a red-carpet event on Wednesday the 19th of Jan.
