Support Person for the Cairns to Karumba Bike Ride

A Cairns to Karumba support person travels alongside their rider or family member to provide personal support throughout the event. Their main responsibility is to transport the rider’s gear—such as luggage, tent and camp items—from one overnight stop to the next.

At each campsite, support people set up and prepare for their rider’s arrival, helping them recover and get organised for the next day. Because they are not part of the on-road riding groups, support people also have time to sightsee along the route while remaining available to support their rider when needed.

Role of a Cairns to Karumba Support Person

A support person assists their rider each day of the journey. This can include:

  • Transporting gear and luggage

  • Preparing campsites

  • Ensuring riders have food, water, and essentials

  • Providing encouragement along the way

By being part of the support crew, you help your cyclist from start to finish while also experiencing the adventure yourself.

Support Crew Registration Includes:

  • Seven days of adventure from Cairns to Karumba

  • All meals: breakfast, lunch, and dinner daily

  • Campsites (with showers) each night

  • First aid support across the journey

  • Nightly entertainment and activities

  • Official Cairns to Karumba Ride T-shirt

As a support person, you’ll also have time each day to explore local attractions. Each evening at 5:30 pm, a local guide will share highlights and recommendations for the following day, helping you experience the best of this beautiful region.

Support people play a key role in helping riders focus on the journey while enjoying the unique experience of travelling across Far North Queensland.

👉 Note: All support crew must register and pay online, as we require the details of all participants.
