KTM Ride4Kids Taking Place This Weekend

Ride4Kids is Australia’s biggest charity dirt bike event, helping raise much needed funds for Challenge, a not-for-profit organisation supporting children and families living with cancer. Gates will open at 7.30am on Sunday, October 21.

This year, the event is moving to the world-class MX track at the Dandenong Motorcycle Club in Wonthaggi, offering a full day of non-competitive riding where participants can opt to ride in either motocross or extreme enduro events.

Various sessions will take place throughout the day, starting with the 50cc juniors through to the open class of thumping 450 big bores. A new ‘pee wee’ track will also provide a safe introduction for young children learning to ride.

Riders who raise $300 will automatically go into the draw to win a KTM 85SX bike worth $6995. A second KTM 85SX worth $6995 will be awarded to the event’s overall highest fundraiser and additional prizes will also be up for grabs for the top 10 fundraisers.

Participants will need their own bike, helmet and riding gear. Entry to ride is $80 and non-licenced riders will also need to purchase a non-competition licence on the day for $20. For more information, visit the website.
