How it all started - my parents sold my car as I was living OS, when I got back, albeit for two months I needed to get around ... of course I rode as a child but I fell back in love with bikes. Many moons later mtnbike.com.au was dreamed up and our first trip was in June of 2009 and there has been NO looking back. In early 2010 I was full time and no longer working the daily grind.
...
We still take these trips and they continue to grow in popularity. We have recently expanded 'the family' and it now includes twowheeltoursand bikeshuttle. After spending many months searching out European roads, trails, meeting the right people and following le tour it was time to begin our European Adventures.
Europe is one thing but we cannot neglect our own backyard. There are always large events on the horizon in Australia and we aim to be at the majority of them. We will take your bike to your event so that you have NO hassle and can focus on the event at hand.

I love being in the biking industry, whether it is transporting riders and showing them amazing destinations or just the bikes themselves. There are just so many amazing places to ride in this world. They are road and mountain bike destinations. I believe we have found the right people, accommodation and destinations to make your trips a memorable experience. Come along and experience a trip for yourself.

I'm getting old ... how about I just write since delivering prescriptions on my Chemist run in my early teens.
Amazing experiences, love feeling the wind in my hair and when riding in built up areas I love watching traffic stand still while I'm on the move! Lately I've been lucky enough to travel around the world and have a bike with me. The world really is an amazing place and to see it on a road or mtnbike is truly breathtaking! I wouldn't change these experinces for anything, come along and see I mean!

Many dreams but one came to me recently, in early 2009 I rode behind a guy who had to be 65 mtnbiking through Sparrow Hill, he was hooting. I hope that I too can be that fast when I’m his age.
