Pedalling for Change: Barwon Heads Riders Gear Up for Bridge 2 Bridge 4 Charity Ride

2 Sep 2025 by Stuart Lucas

The countdown is on for one of the region’s most inspiring fundraising events. The Bridge 2 Bridge 4 (B2B4) campaign in support of the Give Where You Live Foundation will officially launch on Saturday 11 October at the Barwon Heads Bowling Club.

Hosted by local favourite Ian Cover of Coodabeen Champions fame, the evening will feature an exclusive keynote from Simon Gerrans — Australian cycling legend, Tour de France yellow jersey wearer, and owner of Hendry’s. Guests will also hear from Zac Lewis, CEO of Give Where You Live, about the critical impact of community-driven support.

Since its inception in 2015, the Barwon Heads Cycling Club (BHCC) has pedalled beyond sport to drive real social change. This November, a team of ten riders will take on the fourth edition of the Bridge 2 Bridge Charity Ride — an extraordinary 900-kilometre journey from the Murray River Bridge in Albury to the Barwon Heads Bridge, navigating the rugged Victorian High Country along the way.

All funds raised through B2B4 will directly support the Give Where You Live Foundation, helping to tackle inequity and disadvantage across the Geelong region.
