Event Overview
Skippy Park Crit is a Sunshine Coast Cycling Club criterium scheduled for Sunday 12 April 2026 at Skippy Park in Landsborough, Queensland. Entries are hosted via EntryBoss, and the program is run in graded time-based races for men, women and juniors. The published schedule lists multiple grades across the morning, with race durations set by category and finishing with extra laps. Riders require a current AusCycling Race (Road) licence to enter.
What the Course Demands
This is a short-lap criterium around the Skippy Park circuit, with a commonly referenced segment distance of about 1.18km. Segment data indicates negligible elevation change, so outcomes are generally shaped by repeated accelerations, speed control through the lap, and positioning as the pace changes across the race. With race times set by grade plus additional laps, riders need to manage efforts across frequent corners and mid-race surges.
Who This Event Suits Best
This event suits riders who want a structured, club-run criterium with graded fields and a clear schedule. It can work for developing racers stepping into shorter, controlled race formats, as well as experienced riders looking for high-intensity bunch racing. Juniors are catered for with a dedicated race. Athletes who are confident riding close in a group and responding to pace changes will be best matched.
