It also aims to raise awareness of the plight of children who require surgeries and medical treatment, and simply cannot get help, because their parents are too poor or they have no parents.
The surgeries range from grommets in their ears to cleft palates and heart valve replacements and everything in between.
Dr Andre Hattingh, founder of Pediatric Care Africa, will ride his Harley Davidson all around South Africa, over an approximate distance of 5 600 kilometres, visiting the most northern, southern, eastern and western points accessible by road bike during this trip.

Every motorcycle rider and motorbike club in South Africa is invited to join them for any part of the route, or by being a guest rider sponsored for R1 per kilometre they travel with Hattingh.
