Balmoral Cycling Club Junior & Women's Tour

01/07/2025

🌟 Thank You for making the 2025 Quest Balmoral Junior & Women’s Tour a success 🌟
Four stages across four locations and every moment was packed with energy, grit, and community spirit.

💛 To our sponsors – A huge thank you. Your support makes this event possible. We especially want to acknowledge our Platinum Sponsor, Quest Cannon Hill, for not only their financial backing but also donating our brand-new gazebos. These will be a game-changer for events all year round, rain or shine. And to Precision Fitness, who stepped up their hill climb sponsorship this year and threw in some fantastic prizes—thank you!

🚴‍♀️ To the riders – From our youngest juniors to the incredible women who raced, whether chasing podiums, competing in the BikeChain J19 National Road Series or the BBB Queensland Junior Road Series, or simply challenging yourself to have a go, you brought determination, courage, and sportsmanship to every stage.

🙌 To our volunteers – You are the heartbeat of this event. Planning starts six months in advance, but without you showing up and jumping in on the day, things wouldn’t run smoothly. A heartfelt thanks from all of us.

🤝 To our community and business partners, AusCycling - QLD, Red Rooster Mount Gravatt, Haigslea State School, Ipswich City Council, Brisbane City Council, Lovewell Cafe, QPS and many more – Your ongoing support at every stage helps keep the wheels turning. Thank you for standing with us and championing junior and women’s cycling.

The organising committee will now take a well-earned break before we start it all over again for 2026.

🎞️ Spot Yourself in the Action! 🎞️

The cameras were busy over the weekend, and anything posted by BJWT and Mandie Franks is ready for you to tag, share, and brag about—so go wild! 💥

But when it comes to truly capturing the pulse of the weekend, one name stands out: Mat Gilfedder

From sunrise warm-ups to that final sprint, Mat was everywhere, zooming in on the grit, the glory, and every grin in between. His images don’t just document the event; they bring it to life.

📸 Want to relive it all?
Head over to Mat’s galleries on SmugMug, find your moment, and if you love what you see—show your support.

Let’s make sure Mat keeps coming back to bring more magic to the lens.

📸 GENERAL CLASSIFICATION – FINAL RESULTS 📸

Four stages. Two massive days. One incredible Tour!

Riders faced the prologue, road races, the Mt Gravatt hill climb, and finished with a fast-paced criterium or kermesse. It was a big effort just to complete every stage – and those who did earned their spot in the General Classification standings.

👏 Congratulations to every rider who hit the start line and gave it their all!

GC jerseys were presented to winners, with medals and prizes awarded to U9–U17 riders and podium prize money for our Women’s divisions.

🚵‍♀️ STAGE 3 HILL CLIMB – THANK YOU PRECISION FITNESS 🚵‍♂️
A massive thank you to Fitness for sponsoring this morning’s Mt Gravatt Hill Climb at the 2025 Quest Balmoral Junior and Women’s Tour! One day we’ll get the timing right so Dave and the crew are at the top of the mountain to present the medals!

The “Fastest to Roost” prizes went to the fastest male and female riders up the mountain — congratulations to Will Banner (U19) with a scorching time of 4:53.71 and Charli Edwick (U17) who clocked a brilliant 6:11.69! 💥🚴‍♂️🚴‍♀️

While no course records were broken today, the grit and determination on display was incredible. 💪🔥

We also gratefully acknowledge Red Rooster Mt Gravatt for letting us use their car park for set-up and logistics, and Lovewell Café for keeping everyone fuelled at the summit with great coffee and food. ☕🍳

Thanks to all who climbed, cheered and volunteered — what a morning!

Well done to every rider who took on the climb – and a lucky few who may have spotted a koala or two on the way up if they walked! 🐨🌿

A big thank you to Precision Fitness for sponsoring this iconic stage with the Fastest to Roost prizes for fastest male and female! 🍗🔥
