About Bike Beyond

Bikes, Skills, Adventure

It started in a heart beat - across three continents, two hemispheres,
and three passions: bikes, skills, adventure. It culminated in 2005 in
Bike Beyond. The heart beats haven’t missed a beat; their world is
now local, but they operate globally; their passions are more refined,
but no less intense: bikes, skills, adventure.

Energy cannot be created it can only be transformed. Bike Beyond’s
has been transformed into over 20,000 km of support for 1000’s of
cyclists seeking adventure, skill development, service. So if you’re
committed to:

Then you’re about Bike Beyond.

“Since 2005 I’ve done a number of tours with Bike
Beyond: Trans -Tasmania, Skill Tours, Borneo Experience. I intend to do more. Bike Beyond offer adventure, skill development, and challenges in a framework of professionalism, safety and fun. They are great people to be around and skilled riders. Justin is a superb mechanic - in the jungle, workshop, or remote single track. Life is better on a bike, and it’s even better on a bike with Bike beyond. Thanks for the adventures, support, and my improved mountain bike skills.” Iain Fraser (March 09)

Bike Beyond Workshop is all about bikes and ran by one of the best mechanics in Melbourne: Justin Riedy. Justin has
over 18 years experience in the international bike industry and bicycle mechanics. He has maintained the bikes of Olympians,
including Cadel Evans, Rob Crowe, Sarah Blanck, and Drew Ginn; thousands of commuters and tourers; professional cyclists,
like Simon Clarke, Jeremy Martins; pro am teams, including medal winning Commonwealth Games teams; expedition riders
and mountain bikers, including riders heading to Everest base camp; and sourced, restored, and built, bicycle collections for
collectors. Bike Beyond workshop’s mission statement is simple: “To provide more than service.”

Bike Beyond Skills Program is about learning bike skills the easy way: at slow speeds. These skills can prevent learning
the hard way - having a high speed accident! This approach means highly technical skills can be learnt by any cyclist - whatever
their riding experience. It allows cyclists to get the most out of their riding: mountain biking, commuting, touring, racing,
road riding, expedition riding. The program is ran under the watchful eye of Dr. Louise Bricknell. With a Ph.D. , 14 years
teaching/research experience in skills based learning and a passion for adventure, Louise has developed the Bike Beyond
Skills Program so that cyclists can develop the skills they need quickly and effectively, and finish a skills session feeling positive
about themselves, passionate about learning, and keen to develop their riding further. “Learning should be an adventure:
fun, challenging, supported, exhilarating and overwhelmingly positive”, is the mission statement of Bike Beyond
Skills Program.

Bike Beyond Tour Program is about making adventure accessible to those that wish to experience it. The Tour Program
is managed by Mr. Adventure himself: Camm Winn. While most of us are tucked up in bed, Camm is living adventures that later
become Bike Beyond tours. He spends more than 7 months of the year in his tent - “out and about”, and is one of the most experienced mountain bike guides in Australia. “Everyone deserves a supported adventure at least once in their life,” is the
mission statement for the Bike Beyond Tour Program. One of the key words in this statement is “support.” This is Camm’s passion:
he believes that the right support can enable any rider - at any age - to experience adventure for what it should be: a positive, rewarding, and perhaps life changing experience.
