8 week beginner training plan for B2GC
In 2025 Mater’s Brisbane to Gold Coast Cycle for Cancer takes place on Sunday 12 October. The 100km charity ride travels from South Bank to South Port, and over 5000 riders will take part in the challenge, raising vital funds for cancer research and cancer treatment. Entries are open now – if you’re a Bicycle Queensland member check your email, we sent a code for a 50% saving on full price!
You do need public liability insurance for B2GC – if you sign up to Bicycle Queensland before the event, we can email you the discount code so you save on the B2GC entry – email membership@bq.org.au
If you’re wanting to sign up but aren’t sure about riding 100km, we have put together a basic 8-week training plan you can follow that will help build your endurance and comfort on the bike. This should help you gradually increase the amount you are riding, while adding in some stretching and group rides, so you can get used to what the ride will be like on October 12. We hope to see you at the finish!
