THE OFFICIAL 2019 FESTIVAL PROGRAM
Welcome to Brisbane
Welcome to the inaugural Brisbane Cycling Festival, proudly
supported by the Queensland Government via Tourism and
Events Queensland.
This event combines professional, amateur and mass
participation events which will showcase Brisbane’s state-
of-the-art cycling facilities and some of the city’s most
iconic landmarks.
Brisbane is a growing hub for world-class sporting events,
most recently hosting Gold Coast 2018 Commonwealth
Games cycling competition at the purpose-built Anna
Meares Velodrome, which will play host to parts of the
Brisbane Cycling Festival.
The city also offers visitors a relaxed outdoor lifestyle with
scenic bikeways, bustling riverside culture and thriving food
scene. Right on the doorstep of the city are spectacular
islands, beaches and nature experiences for those wanting
to further explore the region.
The Hon Kate Jones MP I invite you to experience Brisbane first-hand and mark this
exciting new event on your competition calendar.
Minister for Tourism Industry
Development
You’ll have the ride of your life during the Brisbane
Cycling Festival. Our New World City is excited to host this
inaugural event. Brisbane is a great place to live, work,
and relax – it’s a safe, vibrant, green and prosperous city,
valued for its friendly, optimistic character and enjoyable
subtropical lifestyle.
We are blessed with an enviable outdoor climate, a strong
cycling culture and a comprehensive network of cycle
paths and bikeways that extends right across our beautiful
city. Explore Brisbane through pedal-power and discover
pristine parklands, outdoor adventures, great shopping and
amazing cultural attractions. Enjoy all that Brisbane has
to offer. I wish all participants the best of luck during the
Brisbane Cycling Festival.
Graham Quirk
Lord Mayor of Brisbane
Anna Meares was the first Australian athlete to win a
medal at four different Olympic Games during her career.
Her cycling career began in the Rockhampton Cycling
club, working her way through the Cycling Queensland
High-Performance Pathway. From there she went on to
achieve great things on the world stage and is now a 3-time
Olympian, 2-time Olympic Champion with 5 Olympic
medals, a 10-time World Champion across four different
disciplines and 5-time Commonwealth Games Champion.
Meares said that the festival was an opportunity to
celebrate Cycling in Brisbane and Queensland, with a great
collection of events attracting the world’s best track and
road cyclists to town.
Anna Meares
Cycling Queensland is looking forward to welcoming the
world to Brisbane, and assisting to launch the inaugural
Brisbane Cycling Festival in 2019. Whether you are riding,
racing or watching – there’s something for everyone and we
want you to come along for the ride!
The Brisbane Cycling Festival aligns with Cycling
Queensland’s values; providing Queenslanders more
opportunities and confidence to ride their bikes, to
encourage more people to live out a healthy and active
lifestyle, and for people to experience the many positives
that come from cycling, including social and
wellbeing benefits.
Cycling Queensland is keen to see Queensland positioned
as the number one state when it comes to events, cycling
tourism and development. This Festival goes a long way to
achieving those aims and we are ecstatic to be a part of it.
Please enjoy Brisbane, and enjoy the Brisbane
Cycling Festival.

THE AMAZING RIDE 4. Bike Fit Studio Are you confused about what your bike should feel like while riding? Get back to basics to find the right fit! Riding a bike should never be painful; comfort is crucial because any time you feel discomfort when cycling it’s likely that your performance will drop and so will your enjoyment. Bike Fit Studio’s initial bike-fitting session concentrates on removing any confusion in regards to what a bike should feel like and getting back to basics in. Here are 5 reasons why you should have an initial bike fit: • Being optimised for your ideal riding position and bike. • Whether you’re a commuter or racing cyclist, a professional bike fit is an investment in your health. • Enhance your performance. • Your bike will be faster and more comfortable – now that’s a win-win. • Potential injuries can be avoided if your bike is tailored to your individual needs.
