27-29 MARCH 2026 | 3 DAYS | 350 KILOMETRES

The Against the Wind Challenge is a 350km ride across the Northern Rivers, one kilometre for every domestic violence call made in NSW each day. Over three days, local men will ride into the headwinds to raise awareness, spark conversation and support frontline DV services.

We’re calling for sponsors, riders and community partners to stand with us. Your involvement helps fund respectful relationships programs in schools and crisis phones for victims fleeing violence. Join the challenge and help create safer homes.

350km for the 350 domestic violence calls made in NSW every day.
