four great rides through Ipswich and the Scenic Rim

Bicycle Queensland is proud to once again partner with Lions Brisbane West to deliver this long-running community cycling event. Starting and finishing at the University of Southern Queensland (UniSQ) Ipswich campus, the Ipswich Scenic 100 gives riders the chance to take on a supported, fully marshalled ride, with distances to suit everyone from families and newer riders through to experienced cyclists looking for a serious day out..

Why ride the Ipswich Scenic 100?

The Ipswich Scenic 100 is your opportunity to enjoy some fantastic riding through Ipswich and the Scenic Rim as part of an organised community event. You set the challenge. Take on the approachable 25km ride, step it up to 50km, tackle the classic 100km or commit to the full 170km experience. Along the way, you’ll have the reassurance of an organised event with route support, marshals and rest stops, allowing you to concentrate on enjoying the ride.

Whether you’re chasing a personal best, riding with mates or family, or just after a great day out on the bike, there’s a distance to suit you. Enjoy stunning scenery, a friendly atmosphere and a well-supported course from start to finish.

Collect your bib on the day

There’s no need to wait for your rider bib to arrive in the post. All rider bibs will be available for collection from the Bicycle Queensland tent on event morning. Please arrive during the bib collection window for your ride, giving yourself enough time to collect your bib and prepare before your start. The BQ tent will also operate a complimentary rider cloakroom, so you can leave a small bag, jacket or other gear with us while you ride and collect it when you return.
