The roar of motorcycles echoed through Melton West on 25 November as the Mo Bro’s Ride brought the community together to champion men’s mental health. Organised by the Sikh Motorcycle Club Australia, the event started at Galli Winery, with participants setting out on a journey of camaraderie and awareness.

The ride was a moment of reflection, bringing people together to discuss mental health openly and break down stigmas. The event provided a platform for families, riders, and community members to connect while enjoying activities in a welcoming environment.

Steve McGhie, Member for Melton, was among the attendees and lauded the organisers and volunteers for their dedication. “It’s inspiring to see such efforts towards raising awareness for men’s mental health while fostering a sense of community,” he said.

The Sikh Motorcycle Club Australia, established in 2014, has consistently blended its passion for riding with social responsibility. Known for promoting safe motorcycling and backing charitable causes, the club’s initiatives extend far beyond the road. The Mo Bro’s Ride is one of many efforts to ignite conversations around pressing health challenges and encourage inclusivity within communities.

As the event wrapped up, the smiles, laughter, and shared stories left an impression that underscored the power of collective action in addressing critical issues.

Support Independent Community Journalism

Dear Reader,

The Indian Sun exists for one reason: to tell stories that might otherwise go unheard.
We report on local councils, state politics, small businesses and cultural festivals. We focus on the Indian diaspora and the wider multicultural community with care, balance and accountability. We publish in print and online, send regular newsletters and produce video content. We also run media training programs to help community organisations share their own stories.

We operate independently.

Community journalism does not have the backing of large media corporations. Advertising revenue fluctuates. Platform algorithms change. Costs continue to rise. Yet the need for credible, grounded reporting in a multicultural Australia has never been greater.

When you support The Indian Sun, you support:

• Independent reporting on issues affecting migrant communities
• Coverage of local and state decisions that shape daily life
• A platform for small businesses and community groups
• Media training that builds skills within the community
• Journalism accountable to readers

We cannot cover everything, but we work to cover what matters.

If you value thoughtful reporting that reflects Australia’s diversity, we invite you to contribute. Every donation helps us maintain the quality and consistency of our work.

Please consider making a contribution today.

Thank you for your support.

The Indian Sun Team
