In June this year I’m riding from Cairns to Kurumba, 780km in 7 days. To date the event has raised and distributed in excess of $1,140,000. Beneficiaries include: Cairns School of Distance Education, Primary Schools – Mt Garnet, Mt Surprise, Georgetown, Croydon, Normanton and Karumba as well as child care centres, sports associations and more. I’m passionate about providing children in rural and remote areas with the resources required to achieve their best possible educational and social outcomes. Please help by donating, every $ is appreciated. 🙂

A week on the bike riding 780 km over 7 days across starting from Cairns, onto Queensland’s highest road and then through some great Gulf communities before finishing in the Gulf of Carpentaria. The aim is to raise money for schools and kids to give them the same opportunities they miss out on by living in remote communities. Help support me in my 15th time across the base of Cape Yorke as I go from Cairns to Karumba.

$50.00So how did a road rider get this dirty?
Richie rides to Karumba
Ok thrill-seekers, it’s on again. $2 buys you a share in our fund raising journey to Karumba. Along the way you’ll get regular updates on just how badly I ride up hills and interact with fellow cyclists. Importantly, your $2 will go towards supporting bush kids in remote communities. As an added bonus, every donor goes into the draw to win a tug a war competition with Olaf – image attached.

Schrammy -C2K 2024
Cairns 2 Karumba 2024
7 days-780kms
140,000 is a very significant number, “WHAT IS IT?” you may be wondering. Well, roughly 140,000 is the number of times I will challenge myself to complete a full pedal rotation travelling 780kms from the east to west coast across north Queensland.
Raising funds for Outback kids’ Education is my motivation, riding through Queensland’s outback is a bonus.
This charity reaches an array of School’s in outback Queensland and gives them Opportunities to Grow and improve their learning facilities. To date this charity ride has distributed in excess of $1.2 million.
Together we can help continue providing opportunities for our Outback kids’ Education.
This year I will have my whole family joining me on this outback adventure –2 riders and 4 volunteers.
You might like to consider joining us on the 27th annual C2K bucket list adventure ride. If you ride 20kms you do the C2K.
THANKYOU 😊
Team Cardzilla
We (Cardzilla) have been a sponsor of the ride for the last five years, last year we partnered with a supplier to become the joint naming sponsor but this year we’ve committed and become the sole naming sponsor for the CARDZILLA C2K! We believe in supporting the ongoing growth of the event to ensure that the Cairns to Karumba Bike Ride continues to make a positive impact to the education of kids in remote regions that need to access distance education and the community as a whole.
We strongly believe that supporting the local community is key to our continued success as a local business and hope you can support us support them by making an affordable donation. Thank you!

2024 Road Ride 780 km, across the tip of Australia !! – Supporting Cairns Distance Education- Steve Collins
Cairns School of Distance Education was formerly known as Cairns School of the Air.
It has been providing education to remote families, mostly on massive cattle stations, in Far North Queensland since August 28 1972.
Cairns School of Distance Education is strongly supported by the Parents and Citizens Association.
The P&C’s major fundraising event of each year is the Cairns to Karumba Bike Ride.
This is held during the June/July school holidays.
It has been their primary fundraising source since 1997 and has assisted in the construction of their multi-purpose building, funding school excursions and general resourcing of their school.
Their explicit improvement agenda focuses our attention on the following:
- high quality teaching and learning
- knowledgeable and high performing teams
- quality learning relationships
- learning spaces for 21st Century.
