Race Membership

Race membership gives you access to the full range of AusCycling sanctioned events, including club and inter-club races, state-level events and national championships, across all disciplines. You can even participate in UCI world championship events. Plus, there are many non-competitive events, group rides and mass participation events like Gran Fondos for you to enjoy. 

All of them. BMX, Cyclocross, Gravel, MTB, Para, Road, Track and more. Your Race membership covers your entire racing season for your preferred discipline, or combination of disciplines.  

Many riders and clubs are moving to multi-disciplinary focus, and even our competitive athletes have found the performance benefits of multi-discipline training. 

There are several reasons for this change: 

• The cost of insurance and servicing membership is broadly the same across disciplines. 
• The Race membership now provides access to racing opportunities across road, MTB, gravel, BMX and track. 
• A licence for UCI events can be added through the new platform, at no additional cost (saving up to $180). 

Many riders already participate across disciplines, and this structure makes it easier to do so with a single membership. 

It depends. If you want to compete at state-level or higher, you will need a Race membership. But if you only want to race locally with your club or inter-clubs, the new Club membership will be perfect for your needs. 

Yes, the cost of adding a UCI licence to is included in your Race membership. Previously this cost up to $180 separately. Once you have an active membership, you can simply add your UCI race licence to your account through the JustGo membership platform.  

Your membership includes two types of cover that work together to protect you every time you ride. 

• 24/7 Personal accident: your protection if you're injured 
• $20m Public liability: your protection for others 

Most cycling insurance policies exclude racing and timed events. The moment you pin on a number, you're uninsured. AusCycling is different. You're covered during club races, state and national events, and all AusCycling-sanctioned competitions across every discipline. 

For all the details including a transparent breakdown of what’s covered and what’s not, and how AusCycling insurance works with private health and income protection, visit the Insurance Explainer page.

Yes. AusCycling's 24/7 insurance covers eBike riding, provided your eBike meets Australian standards. Under Australian law, an eBike is classified as a bicycle if it has a maximum power output of 250W and the motor cuts out above 25km/h. If your eBike meets these requirements, you're covered the same way as any other rider — training, commuting, social rides and non-competitive events. 

If your eBike exceeds these limits it may be classified as a motor vehicle, in which case it would need to be registered and insured separately. If you're unsure whether your eBike qualifies, check with your state or territory road authority. 

A 15% discount applies automatically for families of 2 or more members. If you are claiming the discount, you can add your family members in your JustGo account. The discount then applies across all linked AusCycling memberships, regardless of which product each family member holds (Ride, Club or Race). You can choose whether to pay upfront, or in monthly instalments.  

The discount is not applied to the cost of joining your preferred club^{^}. This cost will be paid upfront in your first instalment. 

This replaces the previous AusCycling family membership structure with a simpler approach that you can easily manage.  

Yes. One Club membership lets you join as many affiliated AusCycling clubs as you like. Note that individual clubs may charge their own membership or joining fees on top of your AusCycling membership. Any additional fee will be added to your cart when you select your preferred club, to be paid upfront on checkout (not eligible for family discount). 

All memberships are an annual commitment and cannot be downgraded once purchased. Race memberships are annual and cannot be downgraded before your next renewal date.

Yes. Race membership is available as an annual payment (from $319) or as a monthly instalment plan ($26.58/month). Both options give you a 12-month membership. The monthly plan simply spreads the cost across the year. Any additional cost for joining your preferred club^{^} will be paid upfront and added to your first instalment.  

 Your old membership is no longer available, so you were moved to the new Race product when we moved to the JustGo platform in August 2026. When you are due for renewal, you can decide whether you would like to race state-level and above (renew onto Race), or whether you will only race local club/inter-club races (renew onto Club).  

If you compete at state or national level at all, Race is the only membership that covers those events. 

If you race exclusively at club level, Club membership (from $249/year^{^}) is likely better value. 

If you race just once or twice a year, Event Licences are also available: 

• 1-day licence: $44 — for individual club or bronze-level events 
• 7-day licence: $74 — for a short race trip or series 

Note: Event Licences are not available for State or National level events.
