BIKE BOOM COULD BRING MASSIVE BOOST IN TOURISM DOLLARS Cycling tourism could generate hundreds of millions of dollars for the Queensland economy each year, revitalising regional economies and boosting small business growth. According to the latest available data, the adventure travel market is growing by about 65 per cent yearly and the global bicycle market is projected to grow from US$45B in 2016 to US$62B by 2024, with 32.8 million electric bikes sold in the Asia-Pacific region in 2016. Bicycle tourists stay longer, spend more, and support smaller businesses.
