The event, a cornerstone of Queensland’s charity calendar, supports vital cancer research and patient care through the Mater Foundation.
The funds raised by Team Family will contribute directly to supporting people diagnosed with cancer, helping to improve survival rates and fund ground-breaking research and life-saving equipment.
The team’s significant fundraising achievement underscores their commitment to making a tangible difference in the lives of those affected by cancer.
“Most Team Family riders have a family member or friend effected by cancer,” said a team representative.
“We’re raising funds to support people diagnosed with cancer now and into the future.”
The iconic 100km ride from Brisbane to the Gold Coast challenges thousands of cyclists each year.
For the 15 members of Team Family, the demanding journey was a powerful symbol of their dedication to the cause.
The team’s collective effort and endurance were pivotal to their success in both completing the ride and exceeding their fundraising goals.
“I’m incredibly proud of our team’s dedication and effort in supporting such a vital cause,” said Ryan Chesney of NAI Harcourts Pinnacle.
“Completing the 100km ride was a challenge, but knowing we were contributing to cancer research and patient support made it all worthwhile.”
Mater’s Brisbane to Gold Coast Cycle for Cancer supports the Mater Foundation in its mission to make a difference for those affected by cancer.
Funds raised support clinical trials, life-saving equipment, ground-breaking cancer research, and provide hope to cancer patients and their loved ones.

This sentiment was echoed by Harcourts Pinnacle’s leadership, who praised the team’s commitment and the broader impact of the fundraising initiative.
David McCall, Chief Operations Officer at Harcourts Pinnacle, said, “Seeing the dedication of everyone involved and the impact of the fundraising efforts was truly moving.”
