The Great Brisbane Bike Ride
SUNDAY 21 MARCH
Be one of the first to ride through the Clem7 Tunnel - enter the BDO Brisbane Coot-tha Challenge or the Great Brisbane Bike Ride - Enter here
Thousands of cyclists are expected to take up the challenge around Mt Coot-tha but thousands more will flood the streets of Brisbane on the traditional Great Brisbane Bike Ride.
This year the options are 45km or 30km rides and 12km Goldcross Family Fun Ride.
The 45km loop follows the Brisbane River out and back with a crossing at Indooroopilly including two rest stops along the way. The 35 “Morning Stretch” utilises the Eleanor Schonell Bridge to cross the river and includes one rest stop.
Riders receive a t-shirt at the finish.
The Goldcross Family Fun Ride (12km) is all bikepaths around one of the city’s most scenic loops. Includes treats for the kids and giveaways for all.
It’s not a race, and there are no prizes for getting there first. We’ll have police, route marshals and mechanical support to help you along the way.
At the finish there’ll be food and coffee stalls and entertainment for the whole family.
Anyone can complete these rides. Try it - you’ll be surprised how easy cycling is.
Great Prizes up for grabs. Simply by entering the event you could win one of many cycling accessory prizes.
