Noosa Bike Hire

Just a quick note to say thank you for the excellent service with the bike over the triathlon weekend.
Booking, picking up, dropping off were all made really easy with your relaxed and friendly approach. And the bike was great too.
I will definitely be using you again next year and will highly recommend to friends and family.
THANK YOU.
Colin


Good morning,
I would just like to say a big thank you for the wonderful bikes and service we had for our week 17th to the 24th sept in Coolum.
We could not have asked for anything more.
The bikes were great (well serviced and maintained), the service fantastic with all the added things like maps backpacks etc.
We had a trouble free week and we all felt comfortable on the bikes.
We did particularly think that the paths and marked bike lanes around Noosa were fantastic.
Even the weather was brilliant!
All in all a wonderful experience and would highly recommend you to anyone and everyone.
Thank you so much.

Kind regards

Jenny Tagell and the crew

 

Hi Roger and lee,
I just wanted to say a very big thankyou for such wonderful bikes and your fantastic service. The bikes gave us much enjoyment and were a very practical way of seeing noosa. We look forward to dealing with you again in the future,
Kind regards,

My thanks - and congratulations - to the Bike On Australia team for the excellent customer service during my recent holiday.The Trek hire bike exceeded my expectations and I greatly appreciated the instant response to my call for some fine-tuning. I will be recommending the Bike On crew to anyone who ventures north to what must surely be two-wheel heaven.
I look forward to renewing the association, particularly the bunch rides through the hinterland and along the scenic coast. 

Thanks again. Graeme Vincent, Geelong Vic.


Roger,

 Just a quick note to say thanks for the bike hire a couple of weeks ago. We had a great time and were impressed with the quality and running of the bikes.  We aren't likely to be back in Noosa for a while, but when we do we will certainly look you up again.  Thanks very much,
Brian

We visit Noosa every year for a holiday and every year we hire a bike from you. The bikes seem to get better every year and the bikes give us a chance to sample all of the fantastic restaurants and cafes around Noosa.

Hi Roger and Lee

Just a quick note to say thank you for the bike hire during our holiday last week in Noosa. As usual we had a fantastic time, and the 1st day did our favorite ride through Tewantin, up the hill climb and then Sunrise, Nandroya and Black Mountain Range roads to Pomona and back through Cooroy. We will be back for 2 weeks at the beginning of December next year and will probably bring our own bikes with us. But we have some friends coming over as well who may need to hire some bikes, so if they do I will be in touch again to make a booking for them.

Regards

Noosa Mountain Bike Adventure Tours

 

Hi Roger

Many thanks for the photos and the great day out. We’re back in the UK now Brrrrrrrr!

 Cheers, Jon and Rosemary.



Good Morning,
Thank you both for a wonderful morning on Monday – I again enjoyed my time with you – your attention to detail, safety and to having fun is much appreciated not to mention our delicious morning tea.


Wow!!! What a blast, I have never cycled off-road before but always wanted to try it. The bike provided was fantastic and the tracks were out of this world. Who would of thought that you could ride a bike through a rainforest.

Hi All,  
I was recently in Noosa and thoroughly enjoyed one of your downhill tours with Helen as our guide. The quality of the bikes you provide for hire blew me away. I will admit that I was somewhat sceptical about the whole thing at first as I have seen hire bikes before and would not even contemplate riding them but I am glad I made the call and booked in for the ride. Another thing that impressed me was the fact that even though on the day there was only myself and my 10 year old son the ride still went ahead. I can't speak highly enough of Helen and the way she treated both of us, a true professional in her field. I have only been involved in mountain biking for 12 to 18mnths but not that long ago upgraded my old K-mart bike for a Scott Dual Suspension bike and now can't find enough hours in the day to ride and find myself reading MTB mag's whenever possible. Helen indicated that you are in the process of purchasing a number of dualies which will only add to the enjoyment of what you already offer so I hope this does come about in the not to distant future. Although I don't get up that way often I will definitely look you up when I do. I took a number of your business cards from Helen to hand out to people I know that are heading your way and will let them know how good the experience is. I look forward to my next visit to Noosa. Keep up the great work. A very special g'day to Helen, one of the friendliest people I have met.  

Regards Grant B.

 

Dear Lee,

Thank you so much. It is a great memory of our tour. It was great to share the experience with my kids that day. They outrode me completely!!

This is the third time we have used your company to hire bikes (but the first to do one of your tours). I thoroughly recommend your services to everyone who wants to ride while in Noosa.

Have a Merry Christmas.

Re: Reference for Bike on Australia Pty Ltd

 

It is with great pleasure that I write this reference for Bike on Australia, and the company's owners, Roger and Lee Newton.

I worked with Roger and Lee during 2005. They provided immense support to the TravelSmart program (which encourages people to walk and cycle more) in the Noosa region.

They developed and coordinated a cycle skills program for school children, which was implemented in three schools in the region. The course was professionally run and well received by the students and the school community.

Feedback from the students was that they thoroughly enjoyed the program, found it valuable and would like to participate in further training. The course also resulted in a dramatic increase in students cycling to and from school.

Apart from the cycle skills course, Roger and Lee provided support to other TravelSmart activities. Often they did this for free, giving up their own time to encourage more interest in cycling. Lee also gave up her own time to be a part of the TravelSmart committee at her children's school, Noosaville State School.

They are outstanding community members who are always prepared to lend a hand and support their community in participating in more physical activity and leading healthier lifestyles.

I highly recommend their cycle skills course and any other of their cycling services.

Please don't hesitate to contact me for more information.     

Highest regards

 Hi Roger and Lee

I just had Sue Ds make a special trip to come into the office to tell me about the wonderful time she had today on the Mountain Bike Ride you conducted as part of the Get Active in Noosa program.  She was the lady I told you about that was wanting to learn to ride a bike and then purchase one.  I would guess she would be in her 60s, so to learn how to ride a bike is a great achievement.
Sue said the activity was perfect - that you both were helpful, friendly and professional, the route was very suited to the range of abilities of the participants, the rest time and morning tea was beautiful and she enjoyed the ability to stop and have a chat to the other riders in a beautiful setting.  She has now booked in for the next two rides in October and November.
Congratulations and thank you for holding a great activity on behalf of Noosa Council.
Will catch up soon.
Kind regards

Hi Roger & Lee

Thank you both so much for three great rides.  I joined the September to November series and am so glad that I did.  I compliment you both on the way you organised the mornings; it has been a great introduction for me.  I found your guidance and instruction helpful and caring and the morning teas yummy.

I am very interested in receiving information about future rides or other events that you may be planning. I currently do not belong to a cycling group and tend to ride on my own; therefore, the opportunity to join others at my skill level is great.

 Again Thanks – I look forward to hearing from you

Best regards

 

Australia Day Awards


Hi Roger & Lian

 

Roger, it was fantastic to read about your Australia Day award for your contribution to the world of cycling and health and wellbeing of the Sunshine Coast community. It must have been a real thrill for you all. Although we don’t expect recognition for what we do for the community, it’s a terrific surprise when the accolades come. So keep up the good work. I’ve just had a look at your website for the first time in ages, and its great to see and read about the Bike On team. Jenny and Monty

 

Hey.... well done on your Australia Day award!  It's so good that the 'powers that be' have recognised someone who has promoted an activity that helps people gain health, whilst saving them money (on fuel!) and decreasing pollution.... There should be more of you!

Best regards.. Jan & Kim :)

 

 

Hi Roger,

Just wanted to say congratulations on the Australia Day Sport and Recreation Award for Bike On Australia, you do a wonderful job. I have really appreciated your input over the years in the various projects I have been involved with where I have requested input from yourself.  Your willingness to get out there and be involved is an inspiration. I'm really pleased you have been recognised by the community for all your hard work.

Well done.
