We hope 2024 has been full of all of your favourite things! For us it has included adventures to places like this on our bikes!

We apologise for the patchy operating hours the last few months - life has gotten a bit in the way!
Hoping for a solid start to 2025 spending more time hanging out with our mates - being you! - our lovely, loyal customers.

West Coast Ride will be taking a short break, re-opening late September.
We’ll still be available by appointment, so don’t hesitate to get in touch if you need anything sorted 👍.
On another note, keep an eye out on your way down the Waterfall trail for this new pull-off area connecting the bike trail to the new lookout over the falls, it’s sick!

This afternoon Mr. Dexter took some of our students on a tour of the bike workshop at West Coast Ride 🔧🛞🛞
This was their final in a range of visits of mechanical businesses in Queenstown

Well worth the stop on the ride down the mountain, and well worth the walk up from the highway if that’s more your style!

New rest stop alert! This new lookout is part of the recent Horsetail Falls walk upgrade which also conveniently sits right next to Waterfall. When you're riding this trail, be sure to keep a look out for the new stopping area which also includes dedicated bike racks so you can pull up and experience the views before continuing on with your descent.

The Horsetail Falls walk is perched on a mountainside and a must do when visiting Queenstown and we reckon topped only by linking it with one of Mt Owen's most iconic trails.

If you visit the new lookout, be sure to tag us!

Tech tip:

Setting the correct air pressure and sag on your suspension is vital to getting the best performance out of your bike.

When was the last time you checked your setup?

Grippy, fast and durable - it’s not often a tyre can deliver on all three!
We’ve been putting Goodyear’s revised Enduro MTF front and MTR rear specific treads to the test across Tassie’s varied trails and have found these tyres to be a solid and confidence inspiring companion for most conditions. A brilliant set and forget combo that’s pretty friendly on the wallet!

Fall time is all time!

As fun as the summer dry-dusties are, some milder temps and moisture around make for the best time on a bike over here!

Have you heard? Redbull Hardline comes to Tasmania this week!
Wouldn’t miss this for the world, so we’ll be shut on Friday and Saturday to get down to check it out.
Sorry for any inconvenience, and likely bump into a few of you down there!
