22.01.2022 Tomorrow, we’re meant to be heading off on the #2020RFTC. Alas, COVID happened. And while we all know we are doing the right thing for our ride family, it is still tough knowing where we should be tomorrow. So - let’s take the next week to celebrate our ride - we can’t be together, but we can reminisce. I encourage you all to go through the albums, and share some fave images from past rides, of the gang together. I’ll start out tonight with this great shot from last year - th...anks Tim Manton for this pic of the ladies! #ridereminiscing #fromwherewewishwewere #rideforthechopper #rescuehelicopter

18.01.2022 KEEN TO SPIN THOSE WHEELS? We've got something for you... coming this week! #thehardroadback #rideforthechopper

17.01.2022 Hey guys.... I just found my bike so thought Sunday at 8.30am from Calala HQ might be a chance to have a ride. If you aren’t racing like Ross Aylwin and Greg maybe you could turn up and show me how to ride a bike? Thank you!

13.01.2022 WATCH THIS SPACE....Something exciting, coming soon.....can you guess? #TheHardRoadBack #rideforthechopper

12.01.2022 CAPTAINS RIDE - POSTPONED Unfortunately due to the heat expected in Tamworth this weekend we have decided to postpone our Captains Ride. Whilst we were really looking forward to seeing everyone and spinning the wheels, our riders safety is extremely important, and we need to take the predicted temperatures in to account. Stay safe, stay well, and we look forward to bringing you a RFTC event very soon.

11.01.2022 #ridereminiscing back to 2018, where the wines were flowing and the hills were aplenty. Grab yourself a glass of wine today (or beer, soft drink... water if you must) and cheers to your pals from the bike ride #rideforthechopper #2020rftc

09.01.2022 #RideReminiscing and today it’s all about the Support Crew. The mappers, the drivers, the cooks, the paramedics, and the money counters. It would be impossible to have our trip without them, they work hard all year to pull it together. Post your fave #SupportCrew memory below - perhaps it’s Bills dress ups, Westys chicken wraps or maybe even one of Box’s wrong turns!!! #2020RFTC #rideforthechopper #rescuehelicopter

09.01.2022 Happy Tuesday team, so while we are working our way through this beautiful weather but still locked up with Covid restrictions, I thought I would post a little test for you. Riders from a few years ago would remember we used to post staircases from accommodation we had experienced over our trips to test memories. So, here are two sets of steps for you.... where do you think they are? Clue; pics only taken recently. Keep on riding and I can’t wait for everyone to get back ...together. Just guess pic 1 and pic 2. #rideforthechopper #hardenupprincess See more

07.01.2022 #RFTC family, I’d like to invite you to click the below link, and skip to 17:34, to watch our dedicated treasurer Mr William George Warburton OAM be awarded with his Order of Australia medal. Bill - we are all so very proud of you. Congratulations ... https://livestream.com//investitureceremo/videos/211089054

06.01.2022 #ridereminiscing my favourite part about the #RFTC is the friendship and camaraderie that comes with it. We really are one big ride family! #2020rftc #rideforthechopoer #rescuehelicopter

03.01.2022 #RideReminiscing back to 2017, and how could we not highlight some top notch fancy dress. You’ve officially got 12 months to come up with your nest costume ideas for next ride - let’s make the theme Best of the last 20!! #rideforthrchopper #2020RFTC #rescuehelicopter

01.01.2022 Hey team, this is out there a little but I just watched SAS Australia, as you do, and I thought of all of you chopper riders and how you tough it out on our September rides and in your training. Do yourself a favour and watch tonight’s episode on 7+. It has a bonding session with all the team and it is sooo good. If you don’t care or like Home and Away more that’s fine, just a thought! Miss you all, your Capitano
