Overview
The Scrapheap Adventure Ride is a unique fundraising event that brings together motorcycle enthusiasts from across the country. They purchase a bike for $1000 or less and customise it for an adventure ride through the Aussie outback, all while raising awareness and funds to support people with Down Syndrome.
In 15 years, the event has raised over $1,100,000 for the Down Syndrome community.
Riders begin their journey at home or wherever they like, but arrive at the same destination.
This year, that destination is Lake Cargelligo, NSW, where all ‘Scrappers’ plus family and friends will meet for a weekend of fun and entertainment at Lake Cargelligo Caravan Park, October 3-5, 2025.

Our target for 2025 is 100 riders raising $100,000 for Down Syndrome Australia.
So what are you waiting for? Join the 2025 Scrapheap Adventure Ride.
If you’re not a rider, you can support the Scrapheap Adventure Ride and Down Syndrome Australia by sponsoring a rider or just donating to the cause.
General Rules
Scrapheap Adventure Ride is about having fun, raising awareness and funds for Down Syndrome Australia.
Whilst all bikes are welcome, the idea is to start with a bike costing less than $1000 and spend any additional sums on the bike to make it roadworthy. All participating machines must be registered or hold a valid Unregistered Vehicle Permit (UVP).
Then make a (suggested) $100 tax-deductible donation to register. Set up your Scrapheap Adventure Ride challenge webpage (only takes a minute), add photos, blog entries, etc, so your friends can check out your machine and sponsor your ride.
And if you can’t find a suitable Scrapper to ride, you are welcome to ride your everyday bike and still participate in the event. You can get there by Dirt or Road.
Support vehicles for the Scrapheap riders are also welcome and carry fuel, water, food, and any Scrappers that don’t make the distance.
