If you're already riding to work and you're keen to encourage new riders, we have plenty of resources including a PowerPoint presentation and flyers.

Go to www.ride2work.com.au for details.

Volunteer opportunities with Bicycle Queensland

BQ runs great events to get more people cycling more often. To do that, we rely on the support of hundreds of Bicycle Queensland members and cycling community members.

Some take annual leave each year to assist on Cycle Queensland, our 9-day holiday on wheels. Some wake up amazingly early to help set-up a start site, or a rest stop, or a finish site. Some stand on a corner on a bike route as marshals, encouraging cyclists and showing them the way to go.

If you have ever wanted to help increase the profile of cycling, here's a chance to be part of our great events. Email This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it and let us know which of our events (Cycle Queensland, Wilson HTM Brisbane to the Gold Coast Cycle Challenge, Ride to Work Day) you can assist with.
