David Kemp (born 10 April 1984) is an Australian former professional road bicycle racer who competed with the Belgian Veranda's Willems-Accent professional team in 2011, his final season.[1][2] Kemp secured the contract at the last-minute, after the collapse of Chris White's ill-fated Pegasus Racing/Fly V project.[3]

During his multi-year tenure with the Fly V Australia team, Kemp worked primarily as a domestique, though he won silver at the Australian road championships in January 2010[4] and finished third overall in the King of the Mountain classification at the Tour Down Under that same year.[5]
