Based 40 minutes from Byron Bay and the Gold Coast, this outfit supplies everything you need—bike, helmet, padded seat, waterproof panniers, tunnel light, map and lock—plus a safety briefing before you roll.

What to expect
You'll arrive, meet the team, get shown how the e-bike works, and receive a run-through of trail etiquette and safety. The Northern Rivers Rail Trail is a converted railway line—gently graded, wide and well-maintained, with no major climbs. Riders of all fitness levels pedal comfortably; the motor does the heavy lifting. You'll pass through a tunnel (torch provided), rural farmland, and small towns. Pace yourself; there's no set schedule. Bring water and snacks, or plan a meal stop en route. Most riders cover 10–20 km depending on fitness and time available.

Not suitable if you have serious heart or lung conditions. Book ahead, especially weekends. Lunch and snacks aren't included—pack or buy along the trail. Helmets mandatory. Infant seats and tag-along bikes available; mention when booking. One-way shuttle returns you to the station for a fee.
