Welcome to the 8th annual Portfolio Partners South Bank to Surfers Paradise cycle.
This is a mass participation ride which will start at South Bank and wind its way down to the café district in the heart of Surfers Paradise. There will be a small pit stop available at Yatala where riders can have a quick breather, top up drinks and a small snack. The event will finish in downtown Surfers Paradise with some entertainment and a great array of cafes happy to feed hungry cyclists and families.

Not only is this event a great opportunity for friends, families and colleagues to participate in a fun, challenging day and take in the sights, it is an opportunity to raise much needed funds for the QIMR - Skin Cancer research.”
