Simpson Desert Bike Challenge 2024
Help keep the Flying Doctor flying! I’m raising funds so the Royal Flying Doctor Service can respond at a moment’s notice for people living, working, and travelling in remote, rural and regional areas in Australia.
Last year alone, the RFDS reached more than 330,000 Australians with 24-hour emergency retrieval and primary health care. That’s one person every two minutes!
The Flying Doctor is always on call to help and save lives, and that’s why I’m asking you to chip in to and help the RFDS to provide the finest care to the furthest corner.
Go on. Please donate now towards my fundraiser, and let’s see how high our tally can fly.
My impact
So far, my fundraising could help…
Provide a full range of life saving medication such as sedatives, pain relief and antibiotics so the Flying Doctor can be ready for 146 emergency situations.
Send 75 life saving-medical chest to remote communities
Provide one on one counselling to 47 outback Australians during a difficult time
Purchase 31 pieces of equipment that could include ventilators, defibrillators and infusion pumps which are used on board flights
Thank you to my supporters

Hi Monica You don't know me, I was meant to be one of the support people from the TLCC. Unfortunately, I could not make it out there and almost had a close call with the RFDS myself. I got as far as Quilpie and had to come home to Sydney by a hospital route. Next year I plan to be there. Probably not as a rider but bikes, riding and the desert are important to me and what you are doing is amazing. Well done for being there and taking it on. Ride Hard Ride long and enjoy. Best Mark
