OzHPV Challenge 2026
Coleraine
Celebrate innovation and practical cycling at this unique two-day series of Human Powered Vehicle (HPV) races, open to all types of pedal-powered designs - beyond the limitations of traditional cycle racing rules. Unlike most major cycling events, which often restrict entries to certain bike types and overlook the needs of everyday riders, this event welcomes a broad spectrum of vehicles, from streamlined speed machines to multi-purpose bikes built for shopping, off-road travel, and practical daily use.
The event offers both competitive and social opportunities. Participants and spectators can look forward to a full race program designed to test real-world performance as much as speed, with courses and challenges that reflect the true versatility of human powered vehicles. Whether you're part of a team, an inventor, a keen cyclist, or simply interested in creative engineering, there's something here for everyone.
Come and see which designs rise to the challenge - and be inspired by what's possible when imagination, engineering, and community come together on two (or more) wheels.
