Riders head north, a health message in their saddlebags

Dozens of motorcycle riders will endure long hours in the saddle in the days ahead as they ride north from the ACT to Queensland on the Long Ride to raise funds for the Prostate Cancer Foundation of Australia.

Some of the long riders from the ACT region are Steve Pitson, Sebastian Due Madsen, Andrea Lanagan, Jesse Fry, Mike Alling, Chris Dietzel, Ben Stewart, Jeremy Milner , Dave Park, Liz Kobold and Bryan Doherty. Picture by Gary Ramage

The ride has been held every two years since 2007 and involves riders from all around the country, with the various groups - hundreds in all, most travelling thousands of kilometres - converging on Port Douglas for a get-together on June 1.
