Ride for Life! RIde for Youth! 42 days, 13,000+ kms round Oz

This blog is devoted to raising awareness of Youth Suicide so that it can be prevented.

The blog will track Joe's progress on his 42 day treck round Australia on a motorbike as he gathers support for this cause.

Australia has the highest incidence of Youth Suicide in the world. The major cause of suicide is a lack of connectedness to family, friends and community.

We want to get people excited about connecting with our young people so they don't feel isolated, depressed and hopeless. We want people to care enough about this problem to do somehthng about preventing it, not just picking up the peices afterwards.

Check out the website for details about the trip and for information about Youth Suicide: http://www.ozzieroadtrip.com/

If you're concerned about someone seek professional advice (see links at right).

We want you to get involved so check the blog daily for updates and send your own posts to the blog. Tell other people about this issue, get people excited about saving our Youth from depression and thinking that suicide is an option.

Day 6 Thursday 19th June Murray bridge Update

The remainder of the trip to Murray Bridge was flat, straight, wet and cold, what more could a Bloke on a Bike’ ask for.

I was greeted by the President of Murray Bridge Longriders along with a journalist from the Murray Bridge Standard, and met up with some of the club members before heading off for dinner. A convivial evening was had by all. I'd like to thank the Murray Bridge Riders and particularly Gus for his hospitality and warm welcome.
