CALLING all road warriors, Shepparton’s second annual Wild Hogs Charity Ride is back on October 15th. Founded by Gobie Raju who fulfilled his dream of learning to ride a Harley at the tender age of 57, this is more than just a weekend leisure trip, it’s an event that directly supports our community. Join at the crack of dawn, for a warm cup of coffee and a slice of cake at Last Straw Cafe at 7:30am before kickstands go up at 8am.

For a donation of just $50, you will not only share the thrill of the open road, but also contribute to two worthy organisations – People Supporting People in Shepparton, and international initiative Whispering Willows. Last year, Gobie’s first ride raised an impressive $5000, handsomely assisting these deserving entities.

So, rev up your engines and join this robust rally for a cause. For more information regarding the event, please contact Gobie on 0401 501 919. Be a part of this community cause, because every mile matters!
