Aaron Bowen, returning Ride for Precious Lives participant:

My lead up and first day of riding was in all honesty very much a personal fitness / challenge. From that first evening it all changed and I was completely humbled and honestly slightly embarrassed that I'd taken such a selfish motivation. From that day on I rode it for the people I'd met and experienced, for the families that have been helped and that will be helped by the money and awareness we raise. I am so proud to be a part of such an incredible family
