Riding Volunteer Roles

Riding volunteers are volunteers who participate in the Ride as a Rider (first and foremost) and then fulfil a volunteer role in a part-time capacity, which is normally about 3-4 hours a day.

Riding volunteer roles are extremely limited, and as such, applications must have purchased a ticket for the RACV Great Vic 2013 prior to signing up as a Riding Volunteer.

Post-event, Riding Volunteers will be eligible for a refund of up to 30% of their entry fee, provided they meet the relevant critieria in relation to team work, behaviour and skill.

Riding Volunteers are not provided with free transport to and from the event, instead, this must be purchased when you purchase your entry ticket as a Rider.
