The Committee of Dutton Cycles Racing & Recreation Club Inc, with the support of members, fellow cyclists and the local community named here, request that Moreton Bay Regional Council use the land allocated in the Sports Mapping Project as "playing fields" at Dakabin, for a purpose built cycling precinct.
Petitioners here specifically request a criterium track be developed on this land to provide residents and visitors access to facilities that support this fast growing sport. In addition to regular racing, the crit track would provide the only location in the Council's boundaries for learn to ride classes for adults and juniors, as well as providing an excercise and training facility for cyclists and tri-athletes, all in a safe and traffic free environment.
Petitioners also support the inclusion of Dirt Jumps, BMX Park and/or Mountain Bike circuit on the same site, supporting all forms of cycling.
Should the land at Dakabin not be suitable, the concept of a cycling precinct should move ahead on other suitable land within the MBRC boundaries.

Watching this momentum build reminds me of why I started fighting for this safe space to race and learn. It is incredible to see so many families and riders rally behind the dream of a dedicated track where our community can finally train without fear of traffic.

Our community deserves a dedicated space where kids can learn to ride and athletes can train without the constant danger of traffic. I am currently reaching out to council representatives to ensure they understand that our local families are desperate for a safe place to cycle.

Need this track. Traffic is shocking and a dedicated space is the only way to keep everyone safe.
Long overdue. Moreton Bay is huge but we have zero facilities for actual cycling sports. Fix it.
We seriously need a safe place to train. Road riding is getting way too dangerous nowadays.
MY KIDS WOULD LOVE A BMX TRACK HERE. PLS MAKE THIS HAPPEN MBRC!!!
Great idea for the area. Would be heaps better than just more empty fields.

Criterium track must be provided for the Moreton Bay cyclists. Get our taxes into use... Thanks!
