- The Black Dog Ride is a group charity ride focused on raising money and awareness to treat Mental Health Issues. This was the one day event held in the Gold Coast. Other events were held all over Australia on the same day. Thousands of people all over Australia took part in the ride in their areas.

Thanks. That is some beautiful countryside.
More than welcome........ Thanks for watching :-)
Wow! A massive ride for such an important cause. And with celebrity partners too!
Indeed it was great to ride with some celebrities for a change :-) beats riding by myself all the time lol...... now if I can just find some time to actually get out and do some riding I would be a happy chappie :-)
Great vid, cause and scenery.........I would love to ride Australia someday.
+bodysurf100 it is great this country. I have just got back from riding across it and back again and I can say for sure that around every corner and over every hill there is something new and amazing to look at......... traveling around Australia really cemented just how awesome this country is!!!! If you ever get the chance ..... jump at it, get over here and ride the hell of it!!!
Awesome road and scenery with so much bikes too 😍😍😍😍
+Keith Wong It was a bloody great road, I really have to get back there again, hopefully Mr Aus gets his bike together again soonish and we get to hit those hills again :-)
+Keith Wong soooo many nice bikes, so much love gone in to them!!! The scenery is just amazing mate!!! Thanks for watching as always bud!!!
Great cause and a diverse group of bikes. It must have been tough keeping 400 bikes together on the country roads like that.
+azdesertdog That was the best part of it....... they weren't together, well they were but spread out a lot and that made it all the better. I hate group rides where you are all bunched up, I can never trust a person I don't know to ride next to me safely, it always gives me the shits, but this ride we were all spread out so far that it just didn't feel like a group ride. I got to see all the bikes at the start and at the end and that was great for me :-)
Hell yeah! Good to see you out having some fun and pushin' awareness!
I'd love to attend one of these rides soon! Great vid mate!
Ride safe :D
Awesome mate! It was such a great event!
Yeah, that guy was a bit slow, but we couldn't get much further up the road anyway.
We'll definitely have to go up to Beechmont again without the massive and slow group!
My version will be public tomorrow. :-)
+MrAusAdventure hahaha this was ½ done so now I have the task of going through all my other footage lol....... would love to get back up there!!! the roads and views are just amazing!!
Looks like you guys had a great day with a huge group. I don't think we had that many but its hard to count 200-400 bikes when I only have 10 fingers..... Well done mate.
+Cited Fujitsu lol I think it ended up around the 425 mark was great but the best part was that it just didn't feel like a huge group ride.
Good on ya lads. Great cause and turnout. You guys really have some stunning roads and scenery.
+Toobi-wan Onroadi it is amazing up there, will have to go for a tour when you come up........... I know you will come up here one day lol :-)

+Andy Pandy Motovlogs will let ya know when I'm inbound. Be very happy to tour with ya mate
Great ride for a good cause. Beautiful scenery the colours just pop out of the screen.You never see a motorcycle parked out front of a psychiatrists.
+Bikes & Drones dead right mate!!! Mototherapy is a real thing and is used quite a lot and getting more and more recognition as a real treatment as well. It is sooo damn nice up there, blew my mind as it was the first time I had been up there ....... wont be the last :-)
beutiful ride....Australia looks likke very nice motorcyle country
+Tommy Strømland it was amazing mate, I had never been up there before and I was blown away with the views from up there!!!
Pitty about that HD☺☺
+Tommy Strømland we got past him in the end :-)
Notice that...looked like he had a ground clearens like a turtle...
Great ride Andy, Harley was a bit slow but it was for a good cause. So many bikes awesome.RSM8
+02bigkev there were soooo many sexy bikes out there! That harley guy was super painful it was like he just learned to ride and decided to ride the biggest bike he could find 😠 but it all is for a great cause lol I kept telling myself to suck it up it's for a good cause lol
You guys must have been pretty close to me during the ride. I passed the same cluster of bikes at the 4:55 mark at the same place.
+SAFF those poor suckers would have been waiting for hours........ I think they held them there for most of the guys to go past. I felt sorry for them a bit...... well as long as it took me to go past them hahahahaha they should have been part of the group lol
Yeah I remember passing them and uttering to myself "the moment when you realise you should have gone on the black dog ride".
Them Harleys.....
First thing Andy Pandy thinks when he gets people to ride with, "Man this would be fun by myself". Second thing, "I'm going to come back up here by myself to get this view."
+Adventures in Real Life hahahaha yep, that pretty much sums up how I feel about riding in groups lol :-)
Great cause, great scenery! LOL, always got to get stuck behind that one guy!
+Hawk Girl (Misty Varner) Yeah, he was a real slow coach but we all got around him and then it was sooo much more enjoyable :-) The scenery is just amazing up there, when I go back up there I will really show you guys just how beautiful it is!!
Always cool to ride with such big groups of bikes, but frustrating at the same time. I noticed the gopro recording n the handlebars but no footage?! Cheers
+MX Tex yeah it didnt really add to the vid so I left it out. Nobody wants to see my mug anyway lol you are right about group rides though, I dont really like them.

Yeah I would rather ride in small groups especially through the mountains. Cheers
good on you guys, great vid and great cause :)
+outie555 was a great day out!
Nothing like a group ride whether stuck behind another bloody Harley or successfully getting past it... Hey, nice jacket... :-)
+mrcombi I felt so relieved once I got past him :-) struck me that for such a big bike and such a powerful moter that he couldn't go faster than 40km/h hahahaha
I ride for mental health issues. Oh you mean other peoples mental health issues. Riding helps me keep sane.
+Jojo Gun Fang mototherapy is a bloody brilliant thing mate, it has kept me on the good path for a while now!!
Great ride and good cause mate, but you want to stay away from that Captain Cranky bloke, he's an odd one. Haha. ;o)
+Rob Ash he sure is one hell of a character!!! Was a great day out on the roads though, cant wait to get back up there
Loads of bike porn. Nice vid mate. Really enjoyed it. Shame about that Harley. That's most likely its top speed
sooooo many bikes!!!! Being up in Townsville most of the time we never got turn outs like this........ the sheer number of people just blew me away!! Was a great day........ even with that slow ass Harley making it frustrating lol :-)
