KTM Ride4Kids cancer charity day

An event to raise funds for Challenge, a not-for-profit organisation which supports children and families living with cancer

A brand new KTM 350EXC-F will be handed over to the biggest fundraiser in one of the most unique events on the dirt biking calendar -- KTM Ride4Kids, which will be held in Broadford (Vic) on Sunday, October 23, 2011.

Now in its 10th year, Ride4Kids brings together the dirt bike to raise funds for Challenge, a not-for-profit organisation supporting children and families living with cancer.

On the day, participants can ride on either the motocross or enduro layouts, and people of all ages and abilities can get involved. Participants can get friends and family to sponsor them on the day, by asking for a donation and recording it on their sponsor sheet or by setting up an online fundraising page.

The three highest fundraisers from each of the combined motorcycle classes will receive prizes, and the highest overall fundraiser will be walking away with a 2012 KTM 350EXCF thanks to KTM Australia, valued at $13,500. In addition, all riders who raise over $100 online will receive a free KTM Ride4Kids t-shirt.
