History

Motorcycling Queensland, formerly known as Motorcycling (Australia) Queensland, and prior to this as the Auto Cycle Union of Queensland (ACUQ), was founded in 1924.

The first Annual General Meeting was held in August 1925 at which time the ACUQ had a total of eight (8) affiliated Clubs.

In 2007 Motorcycling Queensland has approximately 95 affiliated clubs and over 8,000 individual licence holders.

A walk back through our history makes for some interesting reading.

Check out the article below from 'The Ipswich Advertiser' - dated Thursday 5th August 1965, regarding the first ever race meeting at Tivoli Raceway.
