The inaugral Ted Alexander Memorial Handicap was a lot of fun and a great way to remember our mate. It was great to see some of Ted and Andrea's family out at the race, as well as Ted's racing friends, some of whole haven't raced for a while but signed up to race for Ted. Also thanks to Andrea for the volunteer's cookies!
Message from Andrea Alexander: ' I just want to say thanks to Hamilton Wheelers for hosting Ted’s inaugural road race at Elimbah. He would have been extremely embarrassed about having a race in his name. However as a family we were extremely proud. Thanks to all the people who completed the race especially those who had not raced for some time. I would also like to thank Hamilton Wheelers for all the support I have personally received over the last nine months – if you are a member of Hamilton you are not just a member of a cycling club you are a member of a family.’

Getting Started Guide
STEP 1. Get a Licence
Getting started in competitive cycling is easy. To race you need to be a member of a Queensland cycling club and also have a Cycling Australia race licence. You can join a club and obtain a licence online through through the Cycling Australia Membership HQ or click the button below or alternatively contact our club secretary directly who can help you complete and application form and accept your affiliation fee. If you are not sure about it and just want to give it a go you may purchase a temporary licence to try it out. The 3 race temporary licence is the best value.
Click HERE to join as a racing member. There are options for different age riders, and also the option to pay monthly. Schedule of costs is below.
Click HERE to Purchase a Race Starter Kit. This membership is only for people who have not held a race membership with Cycling Australia previously. It offers the opportunity for people to try out racing (club races only) for two months from the date of purchase. During the two month period, you can race with any club that supports this product (as many times as you like) noting normal race participation fees apply. Should Cycling Australia identify that you have held a race membership previously, you will be charged a full 12 months race membership.
Our Hamilton Wheelers Facebook group is open to anyone with a Cycling Australia Licence interested in racing with us, and not just members. Feel free to join us! Remember content is monitored and any abuse will not be tolerated and will be reported. The group is a place to organise rides, talk about racing, and all things 'bike', but is not a place for promoting businesses, selling or spamming.
The Club's Social Media Policy is to only permit holders of a Cycling Australia licence to join the group. We get had a lot of fake or spam requests, so if you don't have a Cycling Australia Licence, you will not be added. For security reasons we also don't allow psuedonyms which is also a condition of your facebook account. If you don't get added within a day, please contact Adam who can help you out.
Hamilton Wheelers Weekly e-mail reminder
Each Tuesday we produce a small e-mail to remind members of the next weekend's racing and training events. The service is open to anyone and you may elect to be removed from the mailing list at anytime. Your e-mail address will not be made public.
If you have subscribed to our weekly E-Newsletters but are not receiving them (usually on Tuesday evenings), please check your junk mail or spam mail folder.
If the club emails are there, change your settings to accept these emails in the future. Hotmail spam filters have always caused problems with our email newsletters – please subscribe using a different email address if possible.
Our policy is that a call to cancel or modify the race schedule will only be made at the track by the chief commissaire. Should there be a cancellation every effort will be made to notify via the front page of this website, facebook and twitter as early as possible (6am weekends or 4:30pm for twilight series).
Racing Locations
We conduct criterium races at the Albert Bishop Park Criterium Course at Hedley Ave Nundah which is also the site of the HPRW Clubhouse, and at Lakeside Park (previously known as Lakeside International Raceway) the home of many great car and motorcycle races in the past. During the winter season we conduct road races (both scratch race and handicaps), time trials and a hill climb at various open road locations such as Closeburn (near Samford), Elimbah, Pine Dam, Somerset Dam and Mt Mee.
The Hamilton Wheelers Cycling Club was formed in 1908 when it was known as Hamilton Amateur Wheelers and has conducted competition cycle races since then.
