Join the support crew on tour
Keep our tour wheels running smoothly
Join the Tour de Cure support crew
Tour de Cure’s cycle events have a lot of moving parts. There’s gear to unpack, drink stations to manage, support vehicles to drive and so much more. Put simply, we can’t run our tours without the amazing crew of volunteers who help make it all possible.
There’s long days and hard work, but it’s lots of fun too. If you’re an enthusiastic, ‘get it done’ kind of person, joining our support crew might be the life-changing experience you’re looking for.
Using your skills, or just bringing your positive energy
No matter what your age, background or skill set, there’s a role for you as part of the Tour de Cure support crew. We even have entire families come along to help make our tours run smoothly! We’ve got a mix of roles, where you can either use your professional skills or just roll up your sleeves with a ‘can do’ attitude to do whatever needs to be done. Support crew roles include:
Drivers and navigators, managing the peloton along the route, as well as traffic management and reporting (lead and rear roles available)
Catering support (including everyone’s favourite – the baristas!)
Off-bike and on-bike mechanics, to keep our riders safely on the road with both major and minor repairs and servicing
Photographers, so we can share great memories with our riders as well as use in promotional materials
Medical support, for example a medic, paramedic, nurse or pharmacy trained person for medical and injury management
Support crew members need to be able to participate for the full duration of a tour and meet some minimum fitness requirements. Reach out to find out upcoming tour dates.
Support Crew for our Walks
Our corporate walks could not function without the important roles our support crew carry out. Join us as route or checkpoint marshals, course sweeps, bike marshals and more. Check out our support crew roles in more detail here.
Putting the fun into fundraising
The Tour de Cure support crew are a friendly, welcoming, and, well, supportive group. We promise to give you time to learn the ropes and you’ll get to meet amazing people and see incredible parts of Australia. It’s lots of fun, and incredibly rewarding to know you’re playing a part to help us all work together to find a cure for cancer.
As part of the support crew, there are some fundraising requirements.
For support crew on our Signature Tour, you need to meet a fundraising commitment of $2,500, including a personal donation of $250. Each of our tours has a fundraising commitment and registration fee to pay, please see the relevant tour page for details. But remember – we’ll support you every step of the way to help make your fundraising efforts as easy and streamlined as possible.
