THE CLASSIC
A milestone distance in every sense of it. Whether it’s your first time chasing a century ride or another notch on the belt, there’s plenty of Strava Kudos in conquering this route. You’ll commence in South Brisbane and turn immediately into the Busway off Melbourne Street for a 16km traffic-free VIP ride out of Brisbane.
After exiting the Busway, the course follows a combination of service and suburban roads, backed by expert traffic management and support from Qld Police Service. You’ll have the choice to recharge at two rest stops en route or to power on to Fisherman's Lawn where the finish line awaits.
The course is mostly flat (less than 450 metres of climbing over 100km) with a few small inclines along the way. It is suitable for people with a moderate level of fitness.

MID-DISTANCE
The 60km route has you joining the buzz of the main event at the first rest stop at Eagleby. As you roll across the start line you’ll immediately join in with the 100km riders and cycle onwards to the Gold Coast.
The course takes you along suburban side roads, then exiting suburbia to wind its way along quiet country lanes, through cane fields and farmland, then onto the Gold Coast. You will have an option to take refreshments break at the Coomera rest stop with 20kms to go.
This distance is a great stepping-stone to cycling the 100km event next year, you’ll experience riding through the finish arch on the Gold Coast to enjoy the buzz and atmosphere of the Finishers' Village surrounded by your fellow B2GC riders and supporters.
