More than 200 motorcyclists joined police and road safety agencies at Bike Night in Geebung on Friday, 22 May, as part of National Road Safety Week.
Hosted by North Brisbane District Police, the event focused on motorcycle safety, rider awareness and theft prevention, with officers sharing new resources aimed at helping riders stay safe both on the road and when securing their bikes.
Highway Patrol motorcycle officers attended alongside representatives from the Department of Transport and Main Roads, giving riders the chance to ask questions and discuss road conditions, riding behaviour and common risks facing motorcyclists.
The event also featured community engagement activities and safety displays, creating what police described as a relaxed environment for riders and authorities to connect over a shared goal of improving road safety.
Police used the event to reinforce broader messaging around personal responsibility on Queensland roads during National Road Safety Week, which ran from 17 to 24 May.
Officers urged riders and drivers to think carefully about the choices they make behind the wheel or handlebars, including speeding, distraction and riding while impaired or fatigued.
The campaign also tied into Fatality Free Friday on 29 May, with police calling on Queenslanders to reflect on behaviours that contribute to serious crashes and road fatalities.
Motorcyclists remain among the most vulnerable road users in Queensland, with police continuing to focus heavily on rider education and awareness initiatives across Brisbane’s northside.
