Riders
Here is your chance to see what you are really made of. Road riders have the chance to tackle the 780km that divides Cape York from Cairns to Karumba while the Dirty Boys (mountain bike riders) take on the outback tracks, rivers and creeks as they explore some of the most wonderful and diverse landscapes imaginable. To see what all the fuss is about, watch the video below.

Support Persons
The Cairns to Karumba Bike Ride is a brilliant adventure for everyone … supporters included!  This is your chance to not only support a friend or loved one while they ride, but also a chance for you to take in the sights and sounds of a magnificent part of Far North Queensland that most people will simply never get to experience. 

Volunteers
Each year the ride organisers rely on approximately 60 volunteers to keep the wheels turnings on this wonderful ride. We need kitchen staff, escort drivers, truck drivers, entertainment co-ordinators, communications personnel, photographers, logistics staff, drink station attendants, kid’s club helpers, massage therapists…and the list goes on. 

 

The Rio Tinto River 2 Reef Ride charity event is a mass participation ride, not a race, to raise funds for two local charities – RACQ CQ Rescue and Sporting Wheelies and Disabled Association and to encourage more people to become active and involved in cycling. This year’s event is to be held in Mackay on Saturday September, 2019. Last year this event attracted over 1,500 cyclists. This year, it is estimated that numbers will exceed 1,600!

There are FOUR ride distances to choose from: 35km, 60km, 90km or 135km.  We’ll finish at the Blue Water Quay where breakfast food stalls will be operating – perfect for your friends and family to greet you when you cross the line.
The Rio Tinto River 2 Reef Ride is a fantastic opportunity to get outdoors and enjoy the glorious scenery Mackay has to offer while raising money for worthwhile causes.

What is the Buderim 9 Challenge?

The Buderim 9 Challenge is an annual 76km cycling event covering nine hills around Buderim. It lasts around three hours and is held during the week before Christmas.
You can take up the challenge and become a member of the exclusive Buderim 9 Club and help the Cerebral Palsy League support Queenslanders with cerebral palsy and related physical disabilities.

Serious cyclists will love the challenge of the Buderim 9 Ride up nine of Buderim’s toughest hills and enjoy the rush of riding down them too!
What an extreme way to ensure you are too tired to cook Christmas dinner!
This ride started in 2010 and looks to become a local tradition for cyclists that are fit enough (and mad enough!) to have a go. Ride at your own pace, do all the hills or only some, meet up for breaks along the way. If you love riding your bike the Buderim 9 Ride is a whole lotta fun!  The challenge is to climb all nine hills in three hours. Riders must ride the hills according to the event map and all riders receive a certificate to indicate the number of hills accomplished.

We are a local charity organisation in Mount Isa.  Our aim is to raise money through our love of cycling for individuals, families and charity organisations in Mount Isa and the surrounding region.  A second aim of our organisation is to encourage people to engage in the wonderful world of cycling. So, there’s little left to say except get the bike out of the shed, pump up the tyres and oil the chain.  We’re keeping a warm spot on the start line for you and a coldie at the finish, pencil in August and dust off that bike!
