There is a group of local Cyclocross diehards that simply call ourselves the Queensland Cyclocross Group.
We are members of different clubs and have varied cycling backgrounds. We come together because of our love of Cyclocross, and together, we are able to get these races going.

If
you would like to participate in helping the Queensland Cyclocross Group build the
sport please drop in at the one of the races and say hi. Turning up early to help setup and hanging around after a race to pull down the course will also earn you some brownie points and the odd free beer and sausage.
The Aims and Objectives of the CX Group are:
- To organise fun and exciting cyclocross races for competitors and spectators.
- To encourage participation in cyclocross events by all members of the community.
- To promote and grow the sport of cyclocross in Queensland.
- Provide assistance to interested individuals and groups wishing to promote, organise and participate in cyclocross events.
The group will achieve this by:
- Organising regular races for all interested in the sport of cyclocross. Women, and children will be encouraged to participate in the sport of CX, by setting up specific women only and children only activities.
- Keeping races affordable for participants.
- Organising skills training opportunities.
- Supporting other groups wishing to set up cyclocross activities.
- Seeking support from other cycling codes and clubs.
- Seeking support from all levels of government.
