Volunteer Roles
Venue Bump In
There are three venues which need bumping in on Sunday.
- St Leonards Park (North Sydney)
- Pirrama Park (Pyrmont)
- Parramatta Park (Parramatta)
We do have logistics teams to perform most of the heavy lifting, so this role includes hanging signage, setting up marquees and water stations, and moving tables and chairs into position.
Course Marshals
Course marshals guide our riders from the start line through to their designated finish location. This role is a static position that requires each volunteer to provide directional instruction to riders as they pass by.
This is a fulfilling position, that is extremely well received by the riders, police and traffic controllers.
Shift times are around four hours, and it is possible to choose a location convenient to you.
Start Site
Located in St Leonards Park, adjacent to North Sydney Oval, Start Venue Marshals will perform a number of vital roles. The shift is an early one, from about 5.00am, but also finishes quite early, at around 9.30am.
Jobs include:
- Rider Sign on / Rider Pack Collection
- On The Day Registration / Changes
- Merchandise Sales
- Start Line Marshalling
- Bike rack attendant
- Baggage Tent
- Water Station
Finish Site
There are two finish venues which need dedicated volunteers to welcome the riders and guide them through the arrival process.
This includes:
- Finish Area
- Dismount & walk to Bike racking
- Point out water station locations
- Point out First Aid
- Welcome to the Finish Festivals
- Merchandise Sales
- Raffle sales
Bump Out
At the end of the event, we need to vacate ALL premises. There are three venues which need bumping out:

So, you would like to lend a hand?

Please note: There are limited volunteer positions available so please let us know as soon as possible if you are available to volunteer at this event.
