Vanessa SchmittWeekend Kwinana Courier

The ride started from Masters Baldivis, where participants enjoyed a bacon and egg roll, before a leisurely ride through the back roads south of Rockingham and then heading up the Darling Scarp to Dwellingup.

Dwellingup Primary School staff joined forces with the RSL and the P&C to prepare lunch for the riders and their passengers.

The aim of the ride was to raise awareness of depression and suicide prevention and raise funds for local mental health services.
