Thank you for the update. You are correct – the 100km is not officially part of that event (and is not supported), but in past years as the 50km ride is just ‘one way’ many of the participants choose to ride back to Brisbane making the day a 100km ride.

Yes, there is another event coming up on the 5th of April: the Ipswich 100. You have a choice of a 100km, 50km or a 10km ride.

Please note that the 100km ride has a cut-off time of 5 hours. Out of respect for the organisers of the event, and future relations between AFA and the event organisers we request that if you are unable to complete the course within 5 hours (ie. average a minimum of 20km/h) please opt for a shorter event.

If you wish any of your times to be recognized by the AFA you must contact an Australian Footbike Association Official to let them know in advance that you will be participating. All times must be start to finish times (including breaks) – not just ‘ride time’.

There is however an Ipswich ride a couple of weekends earlier which comprises various distances, including a 100km

We must have been on different waves. I found the event to be very rider friendly. Yes coronation drive does bottle neck but I actually found it to be a pleasure to ride with riders calling warnings and working together as a well co-ordinated pack.

What was your experience?
