Hallowheelin’

Get your costumes ready, light up your bike and join Bicycle Queensland and Pedal Party for Hallowheelin’, a Halloween ride along the Brisbane river on Saturday 31 October.

Hallowheelin’ is all about bringing people together for a fun, colourful and creative night on bikes. Expect costumes, decorated bikes, lights and plenty of Halloween spirit as we roll along some of Brisbane’s central bikeways and shared paths.

Delivered in partnership with Pedal Party, Hallowheelin’ celebrates the simple joy of riding a bike. It doesn’t matter if you’re a regular rider or haven’t been on two wheels for a while. Bring the family, round up some friends and start thinking about how you can give your bike and your costume a spooky makeover!

There’s a serious message behind the fun, too. Halloween brings more families and children onto local streets after dark, making it a great opportunity to remind everyone about sharing our roads and paths safely. Hallowheelin’ aims to promote visibility, courtesy and safe riding while showing just how much fun our streets and bikeways can be when we share them.

The ride will follow a family-friendly route starting and finishing in South Bank, with full route, start location and timing details to be announced.

Hallowheelin’ is for bicycles, including legal e-bikes. It is not an e-scooter event. Riders under 16 must be accompanied by a responsible adult, and all participants will need to follow Queensland road rules and event conditions.

Costumes encouraged.
Bike decorations encouraged.
Fun is compulsory.

Save the date, start planning your costume and join BQ and Pedal Party for Hallowheelin’ on Saturday 31 October.

Full event details and free registration information coming soon.

BQ’s Weekend at The Downs

Bicycle Queensland’s next multi-day event is heading west – to Brymaroo. Situated in the Toowoomba region, this event will call the Brymaroo Rodeo and Campdraft grounds homebase for Friday 23rd October through to Sunday 25th October.

Partnering with Rotary Club of Toowoomba, the same group who delivered Ride the Range, BQ expect this event to be another fantastic event in regional Queensland.

event details and tickets

Rides will be on quiet back roads and the champagne gravel of the area, with multiple distances to ride on both Saturday and Sunday, and a short afternoon cruise on Friday afternoon. The weekend will suit gravel bikes, cyclocross bikes and mountain bikes. But leave your road bikes at home.

The Weekend at The Downs will include catering for 6 meals from dinner on Friday through to lunch on Sunday. The event space will also include the campsites and amenities for all riders.


BQ Advocacy Pop Up – Stafford

Ahead of the Stafford by-election, BQ is encouraging voters to ask candidates what their position is on e-mobility.

You can review BQ’s campaign to defend safe, legal e-bikes on our campaign page. This covers our history of campaigning to regulate illegal over-powered devices, our submissions and responses to the Parliamentary Inquiry, and progress so far.

Will your e-bike be illegal?

Is your e-bike about to become illegal? 

Join Bicycle Queensland and local Bicycle User Groups for a pop-up advocacy event calling for urgent amendments to Queensland’s draft e-mobility laws. Join us at the Brisbane Botanic Gardens at the end of the Kangaroo Point Bridge from 7:15am – 8:30am Tuesday 21st April.

Not only will the new legislation make Queensland the hardest place in the world to ride safe, legal e-bikes – it won’t solve the issue of unregistered electric motorbikes. We will be inspecting real-world e-bikes from everyday riders to demonstrate how many currently safe, legal e-bikes may be negatively impacted by the proposed changes and made non-compliant. A live tally will highlight the scale of the issue. 

What’s happening
  • Live e-bike “compliance” inspections  
  • Rider interviews and community stories  
  • Speeches from Bicycle Queensland and advocacy leaders  
  • Media coverage and livestreaming  

The proposed changes risk: 

  • Making more than 200,000 safe, legal e-bikes effectively illegal  
  • Making e-bike use ineffective by mandating 10km/h limits on shared paths  
  • Restricting access through age limits and licensing requirements  

BQ is calling for practical, evidence-based amendments that support safe, accessible riding for everyone.
