I’m going the distance to change the lives of country kids!
Adrian here. This will be my third year of riding for the awesome organisation, Royal Far West, where their aim is to change country children's life's! The ride this year takes in more country between Parkes and Forbes, where we aim to raise over $500 000.
From 17–19th May 2026, I’ll be cycling over 380+km across regional NSW — starting in Parkes and riding through Manildra, Molong, Trundle, Eugowra and finishing in Forbes — all to raise vital funds for Royal Far West.
Did you know that last year, over 50 families from the Far South Coast visited the Royal Far West in Manly to receive life changing support? The whole family uplifted to Manly, staying right across from the iconic Manly beach for 5 days, while their child receives world-best support in getting to the bottom of what they need?
Royal Far West’s mission is to improve the health and wellbeing of children who live in rural and remote communities. Every Australian child deserves access to quality health, education and developmental care — but for many country kids, distance and a lack of local services stand in the way.
As a specialist child development service, we provide vital,
evidence-informed care to help country kids thrive — through virtual care,
in-community programs and disaster recovery initiatives.
In May 2026, we’ll be riding to
connect even more country children with the assessments, therapies
and supports they need.
We ride to raise funds, to raise awareness, and to
go beyond — ensuring that where a child lives never limits their access to the
care they need and deserve.
Any donation is gratefully accepted, and will go to support those country kids who slip between the cracks. You can help by making a donation via my fundraising page and sharing it with your network. Every dollar makes a real difference.

We had a target to raise $4000
Friday 15th May When I signed up, I had a target to raise of $4000. To me, I thought we would have to tip in $1500 to get to the total. The stupid war. The cost of living crisis. Rate rises. It all happened. Then the community took over.
WE are now in March....
