Bourkey's Boot Ride

Hi, I’m Paul Bourke - or you might know me as The Indian Crusader on YouTube. What started as a solo motorbike ride to clear my head has turned into something much bigger: Bourkey’s Bootride.

While travelling across Australia on my Indian Motorcycle, I’d stop at local ovals to kick the footy. That’s when I noticed something that stuck with me - kids out playing, but playing barefoot.

Through my business, I was able to donate nine brand-new pairs of boots and some other gear to kids in remote areas on my 2024 ride. But it didn’t feel like enough. That experience lit a fire in me to do more - and Bourkey’s Bootride was born.

This is not a political or activist campaign.

It’s just one bloke on a motorbike who wants to help remote Australian's

So far, we’ve already raised $20,000, thanks to a generous donor who matched the first $10,000. Every dollar goes straight into brand-new footy boots and sporting gear for kids in the outback. No red tape, just kindness.

This year, I’m riding from Geelong to Kalkarindji via Katherine (around 4,000km) hand-delivering boots to those doing it tough in some of the most remote parts of the country.

If you can chip in, share, or spread the word, it makes a world of difference.

Thank you for supporting Bourkey’s Bootride
