UCI Bike City Community Partners Award Winner
18 JULY 2025
Wollongong has officially won the prestigious UCI Bike City Award! Announced in Copenhagen at the UCI Cycling for All & Sustainability Awards in June 2025.
The award recognizes Wollongong’s Community Partners Program, a grassroots collaboration led by Destination Wollongong and supported by Wollongong City Council, with more than 25 partner organizations making cycling more inclusive, accessible, and sustainable for people of all ages and abilities.
This is the first time an Australian city has received this global honour - an incredible achievement that highlights the power of community collaboration and long-term commitment to cycling culture and infrastructure.
The MS Gong Ride is so happy to be part of the cycling community, encouraging thousands of people annually to take part in a safe, fun ride that showcases the beautiful Wollongong scenery, the incredible fun of cycling, and supports Australians living with multiple sclerosis.
We can’t wait to be back in The Gong in 2025!
