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.

Wide Open tracks and gently undulating hills around Ewen Maddock dam made for an easy roll and time enough to have chat and chew the fat.

This is a perfect place to get your confidence up with some optional side-tracks offering steeper climbs and fast smooth descents for the more adventurous in relative safety. Several riders taking up the challenge of “Ewan Maddock climb” finding the fire in their legs and then unleashing back down to the pack.

The Swamp of skanyness traversed without incident then open the taps along Steve Irwin way to Brewhaha coffee mid ride in case anyone levels of Caffeine had dropped below the legal limit Ha Ha.

Temperatures on the rise indicated time to hit Ferny forest for a Quick lap and a half in high spirits. Any two bikes on a track is generally called a race with a mix of Electron and Oats powered bikes everyone enjoying the twists turns and ferns before pushing into the head winds of the black top back to the car park.

Great friendly ride shared by all, once again Mountain bikes proved their worth as a fantastic social leveler in a positive way.
