Luggage and Bike Transport for Unsupported Riders

If you want to ride the Cairns to Karumba Bike Ride but don’t have a support crew—no worries! For an additional fee, we provide a luggage transport service to make your ride easier.

Each morning, simply drop your gear at the luggage truck and collect it when you arrive at the next town that afternoon.

Daily Luggage Transport

  • All unsupported riders’ gear must be dropped off at the luggage truck on the day of the ride briefing.

  • Each morning, place your luggage by the truck before departure.

  • Your gear will be safely transported to the next overnight location, ready for you at the end of the day.

This service makes it simple to enjoy the ride without needing your own support crew.

Bike Transport Back to Cairns

At the end of the ride in Karumba, riders can arrange bike transport back to Cairns:

  • On Friday afternoon, shortly after arriving at Karumba Point, riders must pack bikes into bike boxes or bags (supplied by each rider).

  • Your bike box/bag travel with the trucks from Cairns to Karumba.

  • Riders are responsible for packing their own bikes.

Bikes and luggage must be collected on arrival in Cairns.

Return Bus from Karumba to Cairns

The return bus departs Karumba at 6:00 am the day after arrival and usually arrives back in Cairns around 5:00 pm.

  • There will be one drop-off point Cairns (location to be advised).

  • Riders are responsible for making their own transport arrangements from this location.

Gear and Bike Collection

All luggage and bikes must be collected upon arrival.

  • Any uncollected items will be donated to a charity.

  • We are unable to store items beyond this timeframe.
