Cycling
Change the way you move. Ride a bicycle to your next destination for fun, fitness and smart transport.
The Gold Coast has around 2400 kilometres of bikeways and pathways that link neighbourhoods, schools and parks, and connect with major transit routes. Cycling is becoming popular for commuting and recreation. It's cheaper than driving, produces less pollution and can be quicker for short trips, especially in peak hour.
Free cycle workshops
City of Gold Coast runs cycle workshops for every age and ability.
Our free cycling workshops are facilitated by accredited instructors at different locations across the city. All workshops cover tips to make you a safer, more confident cyclist .
