Ride for a Cause: Join the Starlight Tour de Kids 2025 with BBB Cycling Australia

18th Sep 2025

At BBB Cycling Australia, we’ve been part of your ride for more than 20 years—designing rider-driven gear and supporting the local bike shops that power Australia’s cycling community. This October, we’re proud to be part of another powerful journey: the Starlight Tour de Kids 2025.


This is more than just a challenge—it’s a nationwide movement where every kilometre counts. Whether you’re a commuter, a mountain biker, a weekend cruiser or a roadie chasing big miles, Tour de Kids gives every ride purpose: helping bring laughter, hope, and care to seriously ill kids across the country.

Why Ride in the Tour de Kids?

Every kilometre you ride supports the Starlight Children’s Foundation and their life-changing programs, including:


  • Captain Starlight – spreading smiles and positivity during tough hospital stays
  • Starlight Express Rooms – giving kids a space to play, dream and heal
  • Healthier Futures Initiative – supporting Indigenous children in remote communities

In 2023 alone, riders:

  • Rode over 370,000 km
  • Raised more than $696,000
  • Helped over 17,800 sick kids

Let’s ride even stronger in 2025.

How to Get Involved

Joining the ride is easy:


  1. Head to tourdekids.org.au
