On the Road with Tour De Cure

On the Road with Tour de Cure
The Tour de Cure Signature Tour is always special, but this ride from Forster to Sydney carried something extra. It wasn’t just about the kilometres covered, it was about the people, the stories, and the cause that drives it all.
I’ve been lucky enough to actually ride with Tour de Cure on four signature tours, and each time I come away inspired. Riding alongside a group of like-minded people who are pushing themselves for a bigger purpose is something you don’t forget. To also have the privilege of filming and capturing those moments makes it even more rewarding.

Filming on the go with just two cameras, a car, and a drone is no small task. There’s no retakes when you’re chasing cyclists across highways, hills, and small towns. It’s fast, intense, and full of moving parts. But that challenge is exactly what makes it so powerful. The raw energy, the candid interviews, and the little moments in between are what tell the story.
From the early mornings in Forster to the emotional arrival into Sydney, what stood out most were the voices of the riders, people with their own connections to cancer, sharing stories of resilience, hope and determination. That’s the heart of Tour de Cure, and it’s what we set out to bring to the screen.
I feel fortunate to have experienced Tour de Cure from both sides, riding with the team and filming their journey. Each time reinforces why these stories matter. They remind us that while the ride is tough, the fight against cancer is tougher, and every kilometre counts.
