Get registered!

Just over two weeks to go until the 2026 AusCycling Cycling State Road Championships (Queensland) in Mackay, so now is the time to lock in your entries.

A huge effort by Mackay Cycling Club to bring State Titles to North Queensland and we're proud to see a strong Cairns contingent lining up to race across the weekend.

We're also hearing whispers that a certain Masters rider may be making a return to the racing scene, with State Titles firmly on the radar... 👀

One for the cycling geeks 🤓📚

We came across a new research paper from Flinders University, involving Olympic cyclist and medicine student Sophie Edwards, that looks at supplements for cycling performance and recovery, and a couple of things caught our attention.

One was beetroot juice.

It’s a source of dietary nitrate, which helps improve how efficiently your body uses oxygen during exercise. The interesting part is that the biggest performance benefits are seen in recreational to moderately trained cyclists, not elites, so it’s likely more relevant to most of us than we might expect!

The other was menthol, and how it could help with training and racing in hot conditions.

The research looked at menthol for its cooling sensation. It doesn’t actually lower your body temperature, but it can make you feel cooler, which may help reduce discomfort and keep you working harder for longer in the heat. Some studies showed improved performance when used during efforts, particularly in hot environments.

There’s a bit of caution with it though, as that cooling feeling can mask how hot you really are.

There’s plenty more in the paper, but these were a couple of relevant findings that stood out to us.

We know there are a few in our community who enjoy digging into this kind of detail, so we thought we’d share > https://bit.ly/4u5BHlR

The 2026 AusCycling State Road Championships (Queensland) are heading to Mackay this July and it’s a great chance to get behind road racing in North Queensland.

A huge effort from Mackay Cycling Club to host an event of this scale. It’s no small job pulling together a full State Championships weekend, so it would be great to see strong support from across the region.

There are events right across the board, from U9, U11, U13, U15, U17, U19, U23, Elite, Masters and Para, so plenty of opportunities to get involved.

Racing runs 3–5 July 2026

FRI | Individual Time Trial
SAT | Road Race
SUN | Criterium

We already have a strong group of Cairns riders planning the trip. If you’re thinking about heading down, reach out. Happy to help connect people, share info or coordinate where we can.
