2023 SUNSHINE COAST

Ride in May 2023, whilst helping raise funds for Southern Cross Kids’ Camps.

Our goal for this ride is to raise $160,000. to allow 160 kids to experience a week long camp of of happy memories.

The Sunshine Coast is one of Australia’s premier holiday destinations known for it’s stunning coastline, lush hinterland and offers some great but challenging roads to ride.

Over 4 days we will ride 444km, climbing 7515m, experiencing the topical delights of the Sunshine Coast’s beaches, quaint villages and spectacular views across the Glasshouse Mountains.

There will be iconic climbs, mountain tops, valleys, rivers, oceans and more.

With some slightly shorter days in the saddle compared to some previous years you will be able to finish the day with a swim at the beach; grab a recovery massage; get immersed in the C4C story; be challenged and enjoy what this beautiful part of the world has to offer, all while raising much needed funds for our charity partner Southern Cross Kids Camp’s Australia.

Enter as an individual, join or create a team and help us reach our goal.
