Rural Outreach Tour

​
Not all rides are the same.

Some are about kilometres. Some are about kudos.

 

This one is about changing how people understand chronic pain.


In regional communities, access to modern pain education can be hard to come by. The Rural Outreach Tour exists to change that.

​

Each year, a crew of riders hits the road across regional Australia alongside a dedicated education team, bringing modern pain education and real community support to the places that need it most.

Riding starts this October.

From 15-23 October, the Rural Outreach Tour will cycle from Tweed Heads to Port Macquarie, delivering modern pain education and community connection along the north coast of New South Wales.


The peloton will pass through regional towns where access to up-to-date pain care is limited, taking contemporary pain science out of textbooks and into real conversations with real communities.

​

No ordinary peloton ride.

For 1 in 5 Australians, chronic pain is part of everyday life. That’s not a niche issue, it’s a national one.


Every rider on the Tour is driven by a shared belief that this can change. United by a commitment to better pain prevention, recovery, and understanding across Australia, riders invest personally in the journey. Riders cover a $2,500 participation cost and commit to raising $3,000, because real change doesn’t happen by accident.


Every dollar raised supports Pain Revolution’s education and outreach programs, helping bring modern pain knowledge to the communities that need it most.​

​Impact, and optics.

We ride because we all have skin in the game.


The Tour exists to challenge outdated beliefs about pain, share modern pain science, and replace confusion with something far more useful. Through cycling, conversation, and community events, we help make better pain care more accessible, regardless of postcode.

​

This ride brings together people who care.

And who aren’t afraid of a challenge.


The Rural Outreach Tour brings together keen cyclists who want to push themselves physically, raise funds, and be part of something bigger than the ride itself.


You’ll travel through NSW alongside health professionals, advocates, and people with lived experience, all connected by a shared purpose and a willingness to do something about it.


If you love riding with purpose and being part of something that genuinely matters, this ride may be for you. Past riders often describe it as life-changing. (We didn’t make them say that.)

Frequently asked questions

​Not riding, but still want to support?

That’s okay. You don’t need a bicycle to make a difference.


In 2025, the Rural Outreach Tour reached more than 1.2 million people online, alongside real, on-the-ground engagement through community events, health networks, and local media across regional Australia.


Partnering with the Tour helps bring modern pain education, connection, and free public events to communities where access to care is often limited. It’s a practical way to support better outcomes for people living with chronic pain.


If your organisation cares about improving health, wellbeing, and equity across Australia, we’d love to chat.​
