The Great Australian Bike Ride was a nine-stage ride around the country that began in Melbourne on March 21st 2009 and finished back in Melbourne on October 10th 2009. This was a wonderful opportunity to be involved in a healthy challenge for a good cause.
The purpose of the ride was to raise money for mental health research and education programs funded by Australian Rotary Health; the largest non-government funding body of mental health research programs in Australia.
