Bike Week Toowoomba

Bike Week 2009

Brought to you by the Toowoomba Cycling Community

Bike Week is an annual event and is an initiative of Bicycle Queensland. In conjunction with organizing committees across the State, thousands of cyclists are expected to participate in a wide variety of cycling activities.

For the first time in 2009, the majority of Toowoombas Cycling Community have banded together to bring you a week long program which has been designed to be informative, helpful and most importantly fun.

So whether you are a first time cyclist or a seasoned campaigner, there should be something on offer for you.

All of the events (with the exception of the Movie Night and the Come & Tri Triathlon) are provided free of charge but on behalf of the organisers I seek your “folding note” donation for each of the events you attend. All monies collected during the week will be donated to the Red Cross Victorian Bush Fires Appeal.

Your attendance at, or support of, each and all of these events, will be a testament to the concern and goodwill of all cyclists and I ask you to encourage all your friends and colleagues to support these events.
