About Our Club

Our club was formed in 1993 and incorporated in 1995 when mountain biking (MTB) in Australia was in its infancy. Since then the club and the sport have gained popularity through advocacy and participation. The Bushrangers MTB Club is a volunteer based organisation run by enthusiasts, for the benefit of promoting and supporting mountain biking across the region.

We do regular rides all over Sunshine Coast and SEQ from Cooloola to Brisbane, in national parks, state forestries and council parks. Check out this website for more information on events, news, and for places to ride.

2017 Bushrangers MTB Club AGM Summary

We really need better models

The Maroochy Botanical Gardens was beautiful as always and it’s always a great place to have meetings. The rain held off but the humidity still came to the party but despite the mugginess the meeting was well attended and went pretty well (considering the dodgy secretary didn’t know what he had to do). Ben, Susie and Craig let us all know what was happening with the club, GoGirls and the money and there were some good ideas introduced by the members that are going to be researched then instigated ASAP.

We’ve filled the 10 positions for the upcoming coaching clinic so we can have some more MTBA qualified coaches in our ranks. I’ll also look into getting group rates for first aid certificates so I’ll let everyone know about that (just in case Carol crashes again).

Congrats to John Searston who won the $250 bike fit prize donated by Peter at Masterfit.

I’ve emailed all the members a copy of the 2016/2017 Annual Report and the draft of the meeting’s minutes. If you didn’t get it let me know and I’ll sort it out.

Big thanks to all the people who gave us letters of support and to the Sunshine Coast Council, QPWS, Dept of Sport and Recreation, Office of Liquor and Gaming Regulation Community Benefit Fund, Councillor Steve Robinson and Peter Wellington MP.

Also a big thanks to our members. The club’s doing great and the future looks bright indeed!

Signing off,

Michael “What’s this ‘seconded’ stuff mean” Johns
Club Secretary
