Road Bike Tours
Over the years the staff at Bike On Australia have developed an extensive knowledge of the best road riding routes within the Sunshine Coast and Hinterland regions. The desire to share this cycling mecca with others has evolved into guided road bike holidays running several times a year. These weekend trips are mostly planned over public holiday long weekends to match in with peoples busy schedules.
Our trips are fully supported and include accomodation, support vehicle and bike transport, on hand bicycle mechanic and a few meals throughout the journey.
If you are part of a large group looking for a guided tour we can offer a complete support package for you and your friends. Why not organise a weekend away riding for your company or organisation?
Maleny Road Ride Weekend.
Planning a weekend away? Why not psych up some of you riding buddies and join us on a two day riding weekend through an area rich in history and culture. Our Maleny weekend explores the smooth twisting roads which traverse the Blackall ranges. These ranges are spectacular and have vast colonial and Indigenous remnants. Members of the Kabi tribe gathered every two or three years on the banks of the Obi Obi Creek at Baroon Pocket to feast on the fruit of the Bunya Pine (Bonyi Bonyi). It was a place of enrichment and celebration; a place to exchange songs, stories, tools and ornaments, for marriages to be arranged, and conflicts resolved.
