Wilson HTM Brisbane to the Gold Coast
Cycle Challenge
The Wilson HTM Brisbane to the Gold Coast Cycle Challenge is a mass participation ride from Brisbane to the Gold Coast organised by Bicycle Queensland.
Participants can choose to ride the 100km Challenge starting at South Bank or the shorter 60km option starting at Logan, both finishing at Southport on the Gold Coast.
The Wilson HTM Brisbane to the Gold Coast Cycle Challenge aims to increase the awareness of cycling and raise funds for health related charities which cycling forms part of the solution to their challenge. The event charity beneficiaries are the Heart Foundation and Diabetes Australia - Queensland:
Heart Foundation
Heart disease remains one of Australia’s most devastating health problems, claiming a life on average every 11 minutes. Throughout the 50 years since its inception, the Heart Foundation has played a pivotal role in the achievement of major advances in the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular disease – the nation’s number one killer. Your support of the Heart Foundation as a participant and fundraiser in this event will improve your heart health and help save and change Australian lives by ensuring we can continue to fund our lifesaving research and education programs.
Diabetes Australia - Queensland
Diabetes Australia – Queensland is the peak consumer body for people with diabetes in Queensland and for those at risk. Our mission is to turn diabetes around in Queensland through awareness, prevention, detection, management and cure.
