The inaugural charity ball was created by a committee of 5 Ride As One cyclists –known as The Lost Bottles, One Great Idea Events and Lori-Rose McGinty to aid in raising much needed funds for blood cancer.

38 Ride As One cyclists, many who attended the inaugural charity ball, and The Lost Bottles will head to New Zealand's south island to cover 811 kilometres of rough and hilly terrain over 6 challenging days. The riders aim to raise $250,000 for the Leukaemia Foundation. With over $30,000 raised from the ball the riders are well on their way to achieving their target
