    This is a bicycle race at the cycle track built by WGD Goff in what is now The People's Park in Waterford. Goff was a pioneer cyclist and motorist.

    The original "Brisbane Velodrome" board track was opened at Alexandra Park in Fortitude Valley on September the fifteenth 1929 and closed due to high operating costs in 1933. The Great Depression of the 1930's had hit hard. In 1934 grass track racing was held at Lang Park and by February 1937 the Australian championships were held there. "The Australian amateur cycling championships will begin in Brisbane tonight …… Brisbane has no first-class track, and the races will be contested on the grass at Lang Park." By the late 1940's Lang Park cycling track had finally been completed as a dirt track, just the way it had been planned as a 1933 replacement for the Brisbane board track Velodrome.
