Australia - such a beautiful and safe country. With the conflicts happening in the other parts of the world, every serviceman and woman have put their lives on the frontline and exposing themselves to unfavourable circumstances to reassure public safety. With the risks involve in their job, some may come home safe and sound. But how about those who were battle-scarred physically and psychologically? Are they getting enough support to overcome the obstacles caused by their injuries?

That's where Soldier On plays a big role in addressing the support gaps offered by the Australian Defence Force (ADF) and other government and not-for-profit organisations. Through donations from the public, the organisation provides programs to help the wounded succeed in their rehabilitation and beyond. This coming November 2nd, you can show your support by joining the Soldier On Ride 2 Remember ride around Lake Burley Griffin.


There will be two scenic routes – 30km and 15km – catering to the serious or casual rider, with a third 5km ride for families with young children. Start time for each course is at 8.30am, 8.45am and 9am respectively.

Registration is now open and closes at October 31st at 4pm. You can get your friends to sponsor your ride by setting up your own fundraising page .A prize awaits for the highest fundraiser.

Prior to the event, all helmets need to be inspected to meet Australian standards. All the information regarding the pre-event check-in procedures and course maps are detailed on the registration page .

By joining this cause is one way of letting them know that we have their backs.Let's throw our support on this one great day and give these wounded soldiers a chance to get back into their feet and enjoy a happy and fulfilling lives.
