The year is gaining momentum, and it's time to think about celebrating the year that was.

Join us for our UQ Cycle Club Christmas party, to be held at @easytimes.brewingco

We've got some awards to hand out, and we're sure there will be plenty of stories to tell after the Club Championships, which are being held earlier that day at Nundah.

We'd love to see you there!

Before the year hits terminal velocity, the Exec would love to share our thoughts on the year ahead. We're thinking about how we can support cycling's sustainability, and we're keen to find new ways of working with other Clubs to ensure the sport we love thrives. We're also finalising our racing calendar - stand by to see some new formats and some old favourites return in 2025.

We'd also love to hear any of your suggestions and we'll do our best to answer your questions.

To make the conversation as accessible as possible, we've set up an online meeting on Sunday 3 November, 2024 at 6.30pm. Here's the link you'll need to register.: tinyurl.com/msaf4pum

It might be raining now, but our Chief Commissaire has decided that this morning's criterium will go ahead.

The current band of showers is moving through, although wind is increasing.

Leave the deep sections at home, but know that a firm hit out, the coffee van and good chat with your fellow cyclists will warm you up!

Ride well. Ride safely.
