A team will ride about 330 kilometres over four days, and will donate money raised to headspace Horsham.
The organisation provides mental health, physical health, work and study, and alcohol and other drug support services for people aged 12 to 25.
The ride follows a similar event last year for headspace, which saw riders cycle from Wodonga to Ballarat and raise more than $12,700.
This year, riders will stop at secondary schools along the way to speak about mental health and headspace’s work.
They will enter the Wimmera on Monday, where they will speak to Rainbow P-12 College students about 1.15pm.
