Raising funds to help children's charities

Together we can make a difference to change the lives of kids and babies.

ADVENTURE MOTORCYCLE TOURS FOR CHARITY

You Can Ride While Helping Newborn Babies!

RIDE FOR BABIES is our current series of Charity Adventure Motorcycle Ride events raising much-needed funds in support of the Newborn Intensive Care Foundation. The foundation provides funding for medical equipment and research to help improve outcomes for sick newborn babies of the Canberra, Southern NSW and surrounding regions.

The all-inclusive tour packages present excellent value for money with quality inclusions and a tax-deductible donation to charity included in the registration fee.

All tours are fully supported with route options to suit all levels and all motorcycle brands are welcome.

Have fun catching up with old friends and making new ones, all while helping a very worthy cause!

Registrations are Open - Book Now!

RIDE FOR BABIES in Action - ABOUT OUR TOURS

Ride Some Epic Adventures... Do Good

These are not your typical charity rides. Our itineraries focus on exploring routes off the beaten track with plenty of gravel and back-country sectors. But there are always alternate options available for those wishing to take it easier on any particular day.

Enjoy riding an epic adventure knowing that your investment is doing good! All profits go to the Newborn Intensive Care Foundation, and the charity itself is 100% volunteer run so rest assured that every dollar donated goes directly to helping sick newborn babies.

We provide small group, all-inclusive adventure tours where we take all of the worry out so you can simply turn up and ride. We take care of every detail of your adventure, from meticulously planned routes that are pre-ridden and take in the best features and landmarks of the region, to organising the accommodation and most meals. And we never skimp on quality inclusions - even down to the small details like snack bags and a cold drink awaiting your arrival at each overnight stop!

Logistics are all handled by experts so you can be confident in riding with the full backup of technical and breakdown support and safe in the knowledge that the first-aid trained support team will be there to help with any challenges that may arise along the way. We have experienced support riders in the lead, mid-pack and sweeping plus a support vehicle in tow for breakdown recovery - all connected via Satellite communications to ensure seamless responses even in remote areas. And we also take care of transporting your luggage between stops so you can focus on your riding. GPS files and detailed preparation guidelines are supplied in advance and the team is happy to help with tips and advice throughout.

So discover your adventure. And enjoy!

Frequently Asked QuestionS

Please contact us at charityride2024@outlook.com or riding@thebikebutler.net.au if you cannot find an answer to your question.

Can I still come to the ride if I don't own a GPS?

Yes, definitely. You can ride with a group who has a GPS or download a free GPS app on your mobile phone, like Gaia GPS. We can assist you with this at the sign in stage of the event.

Are meals included?

We will have most dinners and breakfasts included as per the ride package inclusions listed. Lunches and trail snacks are best taken with you during the ride, in your tank bag or tail bag so you can stop and enjoy the beautiful sights.

What tyres should I have on my bike?

You are better to have the most traction available just in case of bad weather. It is an adventure after all. We suggest tyres like Motoz Tractionator, Karoo 4 or TKC80 or similar.

Can I participate if I am new to Adventure Riding?

The tracks will be suitable for a beginner level on a mid capacity bike. However, if you have never spent more than 1 continuous day riding off road then you should contact us to discuss your experience level or any concerns.

Can I still help if I can't join the Adventure Ride for Charity?

Yes you can! You can help in other ways by making a donation of any amount using the DONATE NOW button below. Thank you for your support!
