A Day on the Trail
The BVRT Festival of Cycling is designed to give you a seamless riding experience from start to finish.
From staggered start locations to a fully supported course and a vibrant finish-line village in Yarraman, everything is set up so you can focus on the ride and enjoy the day as it unfolds.
How the Day Works
Each distance has its own start location and rollout time, with riders making their way along the Brisbane Valley Rail Trail toward Yarraman. You’ll move through a series of support points along the course before finishing at Yarraman Station Park—where food, drinks, music, and the rest of the festival atmosphere are waiting.
Support on the Trail
You’ll be supported from start to finish with water stations, ride marshals, mechanical assistance, and first aid teams positioned along the course. Whether you need a refill, a quick fix, or a bit of help along the way, support is never far.
Ride Safe
Rider safety is a priority throughout the event. Cut-off times are in place to ensure all riders finish in daylight, and support crews are positioned along the trail to respond if needed. All riders are required to follow event guidelines and ride within their ability.
Getting There & Back
Riders are responsible for arranging their own transport to the start and from the finish line at Yarraman. We recommend planning your travel — whether that’s coordinating with your riding group, organising a lift, or arranging a vehicle drop-off.
