Bicycle accidents account for approximately one in five road fatalities in NSW.

Although there is not a high incidence of bicycle accidents within the Gundagai Shire, cyclists still play importance within Councils road safety strategies.

Gundagai Bike Plan  

One strategy to address bicycle issues within Gundagai has been the development of the "Gundagai Bike Plan".  This plan is a long term plan to provide safe, convenient and connected bicycle routes which will encourage people to walk and ride their bikes rather than use their cars.

Bicycle Week   

Each year Gundagai Council in conjunction with the Healthy Shires Committee and GundaBUG (Gundagai Bicycle Users Group) celebrates Bicycle Week by hosting "The Gundagai Healthy Shires Bicycle Challenge and Ride".  This event consists of novelty activities in the Park and a Bicycle Ride and endeavours to encourage people to hop on their bikes.
