As a quick guide, the table below outlines the basic fare structure for riders, volunteers and the various discounts that are on offer:
Full Details "The Full Monty" - Full Adult Fare (18 years and over): A fee of $850 applies. This fee covers 3 meals a day for seven days. No breakfast or lunch provided on the forward train journey on the first day, but an evening meal is provided that night after the cycle to Kennedy School. A pub meal is included at Innot Hot Springs. A super farewell curry night is organised on the last evening. The fee also covers facilities charges for the various camping spots. "Tear-Aways" - 13 - 17 year olds A fee of $450 applies. This category assumes that the teenager is a full rider, riding with a parent or guardian. If the teen is not fully riding then a support vehicle arrangement is required. See Family riding below. "Lil Tackers" - 7 - 12 year olds $200 with some riding anticipated. At all times families must liaise with organisers who will recommend sections of the route safe for family riding. All children riding must always be accompanied by a guardian. "Backup Buddies" - Support persons in separate vehicle A person or persons supporting a rider, while not riding themselves, is due $350.00 each. A couple (or group) alternating their supporting and riding will be considered rider and supporter/s, so long as only one of the group is riding at any one time. This supporter's fee also covers meals and facilities as above. The lower cost for the support person is an encouragement to family riding, but it also assumes that all luggage and bikes for that party will be transported on the support vehicle for that group. "Train Traffic" - Charge for forward Sunlander journey to Cardwell on Sat 22nd Sept For the majority of people, who will not have the transport of family or friends to get them to Cardwell, an additional charge of $50 will be required to transport riders and bikes to Cardwell. Want to come along, get a HUGE discount on the fees and still have a ball? Easy - sign up as as volunteer on our half-ride, half-work plan. Places are limited, so get in early. While every effort to accomodate your preference on days riding and jobs to do - please understand that the work roles and riding days are ultimately at the discretion of the ride organisers.No charge. It is assumed that children in this age category will not be riding. They will also be part of a family group who have a separate support vehicle. Repeat Offenders - Discount for previous riders A $50 discount will apply to the above fare for riders who have travelled on any year before. Family riding is welcomed but has special requirements. Foremost is a support vehicle for the non-riding, or part-riding, members of the participating family (or families if two go together). As the name implies - the early bird catches the worm! ... or $50 discount in this case, if you kinda roll up a $50 note it looks a bit like a worm? Nevermind. Just make sure that you book before the END OF JUNE (that's the 30th June... this year.)
Fee structure, per day basis Please contact us if you wish to join us for a part of the ride only. Any previous riders can just join in at any time along the route during the day. They are also welcome to bring their own lunch if they wish to avoid any costs. |
