Imagine this: The sun peeks over the lush hills of the Sunshine Coast, a team of enthusiastic riders clips into their pedals, and with a whir of electric assist, they conquer steep climbs that would make even the toughest cyclists huff and puff. That’s the magic of the Buderim9 Charity Cycling Challenge—and this year, ecoTekkSC is right in the heart of the action! As proud sponsors, we’re not just cheering from the sidelines. In conjunction with VelectriX Ptd Ltd, we’re donating an incredible VelectriX Cruiser Step Through E-Bike. As well as this prize, we’re sponsoring the notorious Ballinger Road (Hill 3) and fielding our very own Electric ecoTekkSC team in the Buderim Electric Division. It’s all to support The Pyjama Foundation, turning every pedal stroke into hope for foster kids across Australia.
But here’s where the real heart comes in: Every dollar raised fuels The Pyjama Foundation’s mission to empower foster children. Since 2004, they’ve mentored over 19,035 kids, delivering 103,000 hours of support annually through 1,238 weekly pairings. Their Love of Learning program pairs “Pyjama Angels”—amazing volunteers—with children for reading, games, and skill-building sessions that build confidence and break cycles of disadvantage. It’s not just charity; it’s changing lives, one storybook at a time.
Our Electric ecoTekkSC team, led by the unstoppable Stuart Whitney, is gearing up to smash those 6 hills on VelectriX e-bikes like the 22 Ascent Pulse Grey MTB for rugged trails or the 22 Urban Pulse Step Through for smooth assists. We’re aiming for $500, and we’ve already raised $80— but we need YOU to help us soar!
Ready to be part of this thrilling tale? Donate now to our team and watch the magic unfold! Every contribution brings us closer to our goal and lights up a child’s future. Or better yet, join our team as one of our six riders— you will need to cover your own registration, we provide the e-Bikes, so hop on an ecoTekkSC e-bike, and let’s conquer those hills together! Rally your friends and family to sponsor your ride—they’ll love being heroes in this story too.

At ecoTekkSC, we’re all about unlocking the joy of e-biking on the Sunshine Coast. Founded in 2018, we’ve been named Queensland’s of Best Experience for three years running, offering hires, guided tours and sales of top-notch VelectriX models. Our partnership with this Aussie-owned brand, also based right here on the Sunny Coast, means we’re bringing reliable, eco-friendly rides to the forefront. And for Buderim9? We’re donating a VelectriX Cruiser Step Through—classic comfort meets timeless style, perfect for cruising hills or city streets.
ecoTekkSC is doing its part—but we can’t do it alone.
This November, our team will take on the legendary Buderim 9 hills, with Stuart leading the charge in the Electric Division. Every climb, every turn, and every pedal stroke is dedicated to a brighter, more sustainable future for both our planet and our community.
We’re proud to ride in support of The Pyjama Foundation, a charity that recruits, screens, and trains volunteers—known as Pyjama Angels—to be matched with children in foster care. Each week, these volunteers spend time reading, playing educational games, and helping children grow their literacy and numeracy skills. It’s simple, powerful, and life-changing.
By donating, sharing, or cheering us on, you’re not just supporting ecoTekkSC—you’re helping the Pyjama Foundation bring stability, encouragement, and opportunity to some of the most vulnerable kids in our community. With your support, we can exceed our fundraising goal and ensure more Pyjama Angels reach more children who need them most.
Join us, pedal with purpose, and help turn every ride into a ride for change. Together, we can power brighter futures.
