Two-wheeled adventure

Reposted from blacktownsun.com.au

A GLENWOOD motorcyclist will ride 1000 kilometres to the NSW, South Australian and Queensland borders to raise money for Down Syndrome NSW.
Dr Bruce Campbell will also be catching up with years of missed motorcycle adventure.

“This is a result of more than 40 years day-to-day use of a motorcycle as my main means of transport,” he said.

“I had originally planned to travel to Tenterfield via the back roads, then follow the McIntyre, Barwon and Darling Rivers down to their confluence with Murray River in autumn.

“As Camerons Corner is only about 600 kilometres from the Darling River, I thought it would make a good side trip from my main adventure.”

The 64-year-old Sydney University of Technology lecturer has taken long service leave. Perry Gilsenan started the ride to support his daughter and raised more than $20,000 last year, despite losing both legs in two separate accidents.

Registrations, sponsorships and donations to Dr Campbell can be made at scrapheapadventureride.com.au.
