Mick Doohan's Motocoaster, Motorcycle roller coaster at Dreamworld in Coomera, Australia
Mick Doohan's Motocoaster is a steel coaster at Dreamworld where riders sit on motorcycle-style seats and travel over a winding track with numerous turns and banked curves. The ride accelerates quickly from the station and maintains high speeds throughout its course.
Construction began on the site of the Avis Vintage Cars ride, which was moved to the Australian Wildlife Experience area; it was the first new ride built at Dreamworld in three years. It opened on 30 September 2007, with minister Margaret Keech and 125 cc rider Stacey McMahon cutting the ribbon. Mick Doohan, racing in Japan, sent a recorded message. The ride closed on 1 February 2026 and is to be rethemed as Lost Mine Mayhem.
The ride was tied to Australian 500 cc world champion Mick Doohan until 2022, and its queue decorations teach the history of motorcycle racing. Riders sit on life-size replicas of 500 cc racing bikes, the first coaster to use them.
Riders must be at least 135 centimetres tall for the main motorcycle seats and 110 centimetres for the two sidecar seats at the rear of each train. The ride sits in the Rivertown section of Dreamworld, on the site of the former Avis Vintage Cars ride. It closed permanently after its last operating day on 1 February 2026.
The ride uses a hydraulic launch system that accelerates passengers to top speed in just seconds from a standstill. This sudden surge of acceleration creates a thrilling moment that defines the experience.
