A stream of cyclists dressed in bright pink rolled into Ingham on Thursday as part of the 26th annual Townsville to Cairns Bike Ride, stopping in the Hinchinbrook Shire on the first day of their 374-kilometre journey to raise funds for childhood cancer research.
Covering the distance from Townsville to Cairns over three days, the ride unites cyclists, volunteers and local clubs in a shared mission to improve outcomes for children diagnosed with cancer. Since its beginning, the ride has raised more than $8 million for the Children's Cancer Institute, with this year's event aiming to add a further $300,000 to that total.
