The Cooper Creek to Cunnamulla Bike Ride starts at Cooper Creek, 470km west of Cunnamulla deep in the Bulloo Shire. Organisers will ensure you understand the road you will be riding on, most of which is single-lane bitumen, coming in to double lanes after Thargomindah. There are plenty of grids to cross during the trek and it is recommended that participants walk their bikes across rather than risk a fall. Although there is not much traffic out this way, it is advisable to get off your bike when you hear a vehicle approaching. To date there has been no accidents, and through careful planning and adherence to the safety instructions we would hope our sound record continues. Other information that riders have asked, is the water safe to drink – throughout the west, bore water predominantly, with some rain water, is used for drinking purposes.
All camping venues are on grassed areas and fenced, with meals being provided by caterers and locals pubs.
