We're immensly appreciative to City of Gold Coast for supporting our volunteers and guests with a new AED.
Mayor Tom Tate led by example, demonstrating his very handy CPR skills.

🚨 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗼𝘀𝗲𝗱 𝗘‑B𝗶𝗸𝗲 𝗟𝗲𝗴𝗶𝘀𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗨𝗽𝗱𝗮𝘁𝗲 — What It Means for Cycling Without Age Gold Coast and people with disability.
Many of our volunteers and supporters have asked whether the proposed e‑bike legislation changes will affect Cycling Without Age Gold Coast and our sister chapters throughout Queensland.
At this stage, it appears 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗮𝗰𝘁 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗯𝗲 𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗶𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗻𝘁, and we are still waiting for clarification from the Queensland Government.
During the consultation period, we were one of 3,200 groups and individuals who made submissions about the impact of these changes.
As the proposals currently stand — and as confirmed by Bicycle Queensland — 𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗲𝗹𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗶𝗿‑a𝗰𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗯𝗶𝗸𝗲𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗯𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗴𝗮𝗹 because they do not carry an 𝗘𝗡‑1𝟱𝟭𝟵𝟰 compliance sticker.
Under the new legislation, that alone will make them 𝗻𝗼𝗻‑𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗶𝗮𝗻𝘁 and therefore i𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗴𝗮𝗹.
No pathway is being offered to assess or certify any e‑bike to meet EN‑15194 standards — even though 𝘄𝗲 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗳𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗲𝗹𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗶𝗿 𝗯𝗶𝗸𝗲𝘀 𝗮𝗹𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗱𝘆 𝗱𝗼.
Without that pathway, 𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗴𝗮𝗹 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗲𝗹𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗶𝗿 𝗯𝗶𝗸𝗲𝘀 risk invalidating our insurance and permits.
These bikes were funded through government and community grants, have operated safely for over five years, and have provided thousands of joyful, dignified rides.
𝗧𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗻𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗰𝗮𝘂𝘀𝗲𝗱 𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗺, 𝗯𝗿𝗼𝗸𝗲𝗻 𝗮 𝗹𝗮𝘄, 𝗼𝗿 𝗽𝗼𝘀𝗲𝗱 𝗮𝗻𝘆 𝗿𝗶𝘀𝗸 — yet they now face being banned by 𝗹𝗲𝗴𝗶𝘀𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗳𝗮𝗶𝗹𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗱𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘂𝗶𝘀𝗵 𝗯𝗲𝘁𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗻 𝘂𝗻𝘀𝗮𝗳𝗲 𝗱𝗲𝘃𝗶𝗰𝗲𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗻 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗺𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗴𝗿𝗮𝗺𝘀.
Cycling Without Age Gold Coast and its volunteers supports the need to address genuine safety concerns and agree with most of the proposed changes — 𝗕𝗨𝗧 - 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗲𝗾𝘂𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗽𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗱𝗶𝘀𝗮𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗱𝗲𝘃𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴!
This is not just a bureaucratic oversight; 𝗶𝘁’𝘀 𝗮𝗻 𝘂𝗻𝗮𝗰𝗰𝗲𝗽𝘁𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗯𝗹𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗼 𝗶𝗻𝗰𝗹𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗮𝗰𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆.
We are caught in the middle of changes that ignore diversity and inclusion, and risk silencing one of Queensland’s most compassionate community initiatives — leaving behind those who rely on these rides to connect with nature, friendship, and freedom.

It is an outcome we find deeply troubling and utterly unacceptable.

If you believe people with disability deserve access to safe, joyful outdoor experiences, please speak up.

👉 Share this post to raise awareness
👉 Contact your local MP and ask why inclusive mobility devices are being made illegal
👉 Ask the Queensland Government to provide a compliance pathway for wheelchair‑accessible bikes
👉 Stand with us to protect a program that has brought connection, dignity, and joy to thousands

🌟 𝗚𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁 𝗻𝗲𝘄𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗺𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘁𝘆!

Cycling Without Age Gold Coast is delighted to be one of the community groups successful in the City of Gold Coast Defibrillator Grant Program.

A huge thank‑you to Mayor Tom Tate for his time today — and we were proud to present him with a copy of our Timeless Rides book as a token of our appreciation.

Our new defibrillator is a meaningful investment in the safety and protection of our volunteers, our passengers, and the wider community we serve.

💛 Safer rides. Stronger community. A healthier Gold Coast.

❎ They weren’t loud.
❎ They weren’t dramatic.
✅ But they changed lives.
A hand held a little longer.
A story shared that hadn’t been told in decades.
A guest who hadn’t felt the ocean breeze in years finally closing their eyes and smiling.
A volunteer discovering that 𝗴𝗶𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲 𝗴𝗶𝘃𝗲𝘀 𝘀𝗼𝗺𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗯𝗮𝗰𝗸 𝘁𝗼𝗼.
We don't just move people from A to B —
we moved people from loneliness to laughter, from isolation to belonging, from being unseen to being valued.
𝗕𝘂𝘁 𝗶𝘁 𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗲𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘄𝗼𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿…
If something as simple as a bike ride can restore dignity and joy,
𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗲𝗹𝘀𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝘄𝗲 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲 if we all slowed down long enough to truly see one another?

🌟 𝗞𝗶𝗻𝗱𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗵𝗮𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗲𝗹𝘀 — and they’re turning right here.
We’re part of a global movement that brings joy, dignity, and connection to older adults and people living with disability.
But behind every ride is something deeper:
👍 A dream.
👍 A community.
👍 A purpose.
Think of it like a wheel:
- The hub holds our guiding principles and the belief that everyone deserves to feel the wind in their hair.
- The spokes connect our volunteers, passengers, families, and supporters — building a strong, caring community.
- The tyre is where the action happens — rides, smiles, stories, and moments that matter.

🔥 We’re proud to be supporting 𝗕𝗶𝗸𝗲𝟰𝗕𝘂𝗿𝗻𝘀 for the third year in a row!
Every year, this event brings together emergency service personnel, families, survivors, and supporters in a powerful show of courage, compassion, and community.
And every year, we’re reminded why this cause matters so deeply.
Our volunteers will once again be out on the final leg of the ride, carrying burns survivors, dignitaries, mascots, and supporters in our trishaws — sharing smiles, stories, and moments of pure joy along the way.
𝗕𝗶𝗸𝗲𝟰𝗕𝘂𝗿𝗻𝘀 𝗶𝘀𝗻’𝘁 𝗷𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝗮 𝗳𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗿𝗮𝗶𝘀𝗲𝗿.
It’s resilience.
It’s hope.
It’s people showing up for one another.
💛 Being part of this event for three years is an honour, and we’re grateful for the trust placed in Cycling Without Age Gold Coast to help make the day even more special.
Here’s to another year of supporting the Children’s Hospital Burns Unit and celebrating the incredible spirit of everyone involved.

⭐𝗔 𝗧𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗦𝗶𝘁 𝗤𝘂𝗲𝗶𝘁𝗹𝘆 𝗪𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗧𝗼𝗱𝗮𝘆⭐
What if the most powerful moments in life aren’t the big milestones, but the quiet ones we rarely talk about?
A gentle ride on a trishaw.
A shared laugh between a volunteer and a passenger.
A story told that might have stayed unspoken.
A moment of freedom for someone who thought those days were behind them.
𝗖𝘆𝗰𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗪𝗶𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗔𝗴𝗲 isn’t just about getting from one place to another.
It’s about what happens within people when they feel the breeze again, see the world from outside four walls, and remember that 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗯𝗲𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗿 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗺𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘁𝘆.
Here’s the thought:
𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝗳 𝘄𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗯𝗲𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝘀𝗻’𝘁 𝗼𝗻𝗹𝘆 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵 𝗼𝗿 𝗺𝗼𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 — 𝗯𝘂𝘁 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗯𝗲𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝗲𝗲𝗻, 𝗯𝗲𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘃𝗮𝗹𝘂𝗲𝗱, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗯𝗲𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝘀𝗼𝗺𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗯𝗶𝗴𝗴𝗲𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗻 𝗼𝘂𝗿𝘀𝗲𝗹𝘃𝗲𝘀?
Every ride is a reminder that connection heals.
Joy restores.
And dignity matters at every age.
Maybe the real benefit of Cycling Without Age isn’t the ride itself…
but the way it makes people feel human again.

🌿 𝗕𝗲𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗰𝗲𝗻𝗲𝘀 there’s a kind of magic that doesn’t make it into photos — the quiet moments between rides.
When the trishaws are parked and the helmets are off, our volunteers often find themselves sharing a cuppa, a story, or simply a few minutes of stillness together. It’s in these gentle pauses that something powerful happens.
⭐ They talk.
⭐ They laugh.
⭐ They listen.
⭐ They check in on each other.
And in those small, unhurried moments, the bonds between our volunteers grow stronger.
𝗧𝗵𝗲𝘀𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗯𝗲𝗮𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗼𝗿𝗴𝗮𝗻𝗶𝘀𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 — the reason our team feels more like a family than a roster.
Being part of Cycling Without Age Gold Coast isn’t just about giving rides.
𝗜𝘁’𝘀 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗯𝗲𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗴 to a group of people who genuinely care for one another, who show up with kindness, and 𝘄𝗵𝗼 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗿𝘆 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘀𝗽𝗶𝗿𝗶𝘁 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗼 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗽𝗮𝘀𝘀𝗲𝗻𝗴𝗲𝗿𝘀.
💛 This is the hidden side of what we do — 𝗮 𝘁𝗲𝗮𝗺 𝗯𝘂𝗶𝗹𝘁 𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗿𝘂𝘀𝘁, 𝗳𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗱𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘀𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝗽𝘂𝗿𝗽𝗼𝘀𝗲.
This is our strength.
If you’ve ever wondered what it feels like to be part of something meaningful, supportive, and deeply human… this is it.

Not because people don’t want to ride…
but because we simply don’t have enough volunteers to take them.
And that means older people — and those living with disability — miss out on something so small, yet 𝘀𝗼 𝗱𝗲𝗲𝗽𝗹𝘆 𝗵𝘂𝗺𝗮𝗻: fresh air, connection, conversation, and the feeling of being part of the world again.
𝗜𝗳 𝘆𝗼𝘂’𝘃𝗲 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝘄𝗼𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝘄𝗵𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝗮 𝗱𝗶𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲, 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝘀𝘄𝗲𝗿 𝗶𝘀 𝗬𝗘𝗦!

We urgently need 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝘃𝗼𝗹𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗮𝘁 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗦𝗽𝗶𝘁, 𝗲𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗼𝗻 𝗙𝗿𝗶𝗱𝗮𝘆𝘀.
We’ll fast‑track your training, support you every step of the way, and before long you’ll be delivering smiles by trishaw — the kind that stay with people long after the ride ends.
All it takes is a good heart and a willingness to show up for someone who truly needs it.
👉 Sign up at cyclingwithoutage.com.au
Help us make sure no one misses out on moments that matter.
