Riders Connect!
In late March 2025, we launched RIDERS CONNECT, a monthly event designed to offer a more intimate, community-focused experience inspired by our favorites like Meet, Greet & Eats (MGE) and Rev Rise – The Riders’ Breakfast Club. To date, we’ve now hosted 3 connect events.
While it is a new addition alongside our Weekly Rides and Monthy SWR Track Days, these nights are for riders who love the social aspect of motorcycling and value the deeper conservations that can sometimes be missed during group rides. The sessions also offer an opportunity for newcomers and regulars alike to meet the team member who help drive SWR since its inception in 2012.
It’s also a chance for us to listen, learn and find new ways to support and give back to the motorcycling community.
These sessions are open to the community at no cost, but registration is required to help us maintain the right atmosphere, personalise the experience for attendees and confirm dietary requirements – yes dinner is on us!

Dreaming Big at Oatley Senior Campus
On June 23rd, we had the pleasure of re-engaging with students at Oatley Senior Campus through our “Dreaming Big” session, part of the 10-week Inspire180 program. We shared the story of the Sydney West Riders, alongside our own personal journeys — highlighting the challenges we’ve faced and the dreams that continue to drive us.
The session wrapped up with a hands-on workshop where students had the chance to reflect and express their own aspirations. Some of the inspiring goals they shared included becoming a professional soccer player, commercial builder, electrician and business owner. l
Background
The Inspire180 project is designed to enhance the social, educational, and leadership skills of young people by transforming their worldview and helping them recognize their full potential. Our mission is to empower youth to pursue their dreams and stay clear of criminal behavior, drug experimentation, and gang involvement.
In 2017, Sydney West Riders partnered with Tony Hoang and the Christian Ambassadors Motorcycle Club to launch the Inspire180 program. The pilot project, which took place at Bonnyrigg High School, was a great success. That same year, the program received the “Community Impact Award” at the 2017 Entrepreneur Gala held in Canley Heights. Click Here for Full Story.

On Sunday, October 12, we proudly hosted the 2024 Ladies Only Ride Day at Luddenham Raceway, marking our fourth ladies’ day since our inaugural event in 2020. Over 40 enthusiastic riders came together for a day brimming with excitement. While the morning kicked off with a few nerves and light sprinkles, the afternoon transformed into a vibrant celebration filled with bright smiles and clear skies.
This incredible event wouldn’t have been possible without the vision and dedication of Christine Yang (Glamaha.Moto). Christine reached out to us eight months ago to kickstart this project, and her invaluable input has helped us create an event tailored to ensure comfort and enjoyment for all the ladies involved. A huge shoutout to Christine, the “Hype Girls,” and the SWR track team for their outstanding efforts!
We’d also like to express our heartfelt gratitude to Michael Kayello from Micky K Motorsports for his invaluable technical guidance and the workshop he conducted with the ladies on the day of the event. Additionally, a big thank you to Bikebiz for their support in hosting the Track Ready Workshop at their Parramatta store on Friday, February 13. This exclusive session was instrumental in preparing the ladies for the event and provided essential insights for those new to the track scene. The ladies earned crucial maintenance checks for safety, received additional tips for track riding, and got advice on fitting parts and selecting the right gear for the day.
Stay tuned for highlight footage and photos from Motobooth (James) and Sunday Therapy (Gus)!

This was a significant moment for us, as it was the first time we were able to dive deep into our emergence in both the street and track scenes and share the important motivations behind our mission. We also had the opportunity to engage in a meaningful Q&A session with the members, which allowed us to further explain our “why” and connect on a personal level.
The Ulysses Club is a social club for motorcyclists over the age of 40 and is the largest of its kind in Australia, with over 10,000 registered members. The club also has branches in New Zealand, South Africa, Germany, France, Great Britain, Norway, Namibia, The Netherlands, Thailand, Switzerland, Sweden, Zimbabwe, Cuba, and Botswana.
With approximately 115 branches across Australia, Ulysses members have endless opportunities to meet new people as they travel, join local rides, and participate in social events across different locations—simply for the joy of riding and making new friends.
