About

We are a father and son who rode pushbikes from Hobart to Darwin in the Northern Territory. We departed May 10 and finished on July 31st (World Ranger Day) 2024. Phil turned 50 in April 2024, and Ned turned 14. Through our riding efforts we wanted to give people a good news story to follow, and put ourselves through an epic personal challenge to raise funds for two conservation organizations close to our heart.
Phil is an ex-Northern Territory Ranger who now works for the Tasmanian Land Conservancy and Ned is starting year 9 this year and hopes to make this journey part of his Duke of Edinburgh award.
Through our ride, we wanted to raise awareness and funds for the Tasmanian Land Conservancy (TLC) and the amazing work they are doing to protect biodiversity in Tasmania. Our second charity is The Thin Green Line Foundation - who support Rangers around the world to defend wildlife and habitats to achieve global conservation goals on behalf of us all.
More importantly, we wanted to give people who want to make a practical difference to the world's biodiversity and climate issues, the chance to contribute in a positive way.

We hoped to work with TLC and Rangers along our journey to highlight some of the work they are doing in our own country. We hoped to highlight the important work of the Australia's indigenous ranger groups.

We also raised around $1500 for another of our chosen charities called Ride4AWoman through presentations that we gave along our journey and with some cash donations.

Thanks to our amazing Tasmanian community, MyRide Hobart, Wilderness Equipment, Sea to Summit, Patagonia, Officeworks Hobart, LedLenser, Tailored Tasmania and Pennicott Tours in Tasmania and everyone we have met along the way for your support so far.
