Event Overview
Event Summary
After many years of uncertainty, The Port to Port mountain bike race is on the move. With the team from Event Management Solutions Australia taking over the reigns they have made the call to bring it into their own backyard in South East Queensland.
The event will now be staged predominantly in the Scenic Rim and Ipswich areas over 3 days of racing from May 9 -11 2025
Ian and Rebecca Harwood, owners of Event Management Solutions Australia took ownership of both Reef to Reef and Port to Port in late 2023 and have been looking at the best way to bring Port to Port back to the riding community. Having managed World Cup EDR (EWS) events in Tasmania, and World Championships and Crankworx in Cairns, they really wanted to be able to do something showcasing the great riding in South East Queensland. With over 20 years experience in the field of mass participant, event management, they have a proven track record of working with events, and having them adapt and evolve in changing times. Sure there may not be as much Port as there was in the past, but we are excited to get the good times rolling again.
Stage 1 will take in the variety of trails at Mt Joyce Mountain Bike Park at Wyralong Dam.
Stage 2 will head to Kooralbyn Valley, taking in some of the trails of the Mountain Bike park as well as exploring further in the area.
Stage 3 will see riders finish at Old Hidden Vale at a brand new event space.
