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.

Special Event: Parklands Dash Experiment – Sat 4th June 10AM

Special Event: Parklands Dash Experiment – Sat 4th June 10AM

Hello ‘rangers,

We are cooking up some events to liven up our ride calendar.

Ben “El Presidente” has got some good things underway but in the meantime I want to put on an event at Parklands on Saturday 4th June at 10am. Now this event isn’t your traditional circuit/lap race. It will require speed, strategy and quick decision making so I’m hoping it will equalise the field a bit (and no, it’s not a poker run ride – although that’s a good idea for another event).

I’ll send more details later but for now here is what I can say:

  • There is no charge – for now this is a fun, informal experiment to see if it works
  • We’ll put on a BBQ (and we may even cook some food on it)
  • Riders will need to be members (for the insurance)
  • Awesome prizes!!*

*Prize pool will consist of the following:

  • a certificate of bragging rights (valid until the next event – terms and conditions apply)
  • a big metaphorical trophy of glory (to hold over your head on the invisible podium of victors while everyone claps once or twice to be polite)
  • lovely bouquet of grass and weeds that we will tear up from side of the road
  • Maybe a sausage on bread…maybe.

If this goes well we can make it a Bushranger “thing”.

Warmest regards,

Michael “el secretario?” Johns

Parklands Dash
