September school holidays starting with a long weekend (September 29th) is peak time for Margaret River bike hire. And here’s the thing – this year we’ve got some serious new gear that changes everything.
We’ve just received our fleet of brand new Trek Rail 7 Gen 3 full suspension e-bikes – absolute game-changers for the Wooditjup trails. Plus, we’ve added baby seats and bike trailers, making this the perfect time for families to explore Margaret River and Busselton like never before.
Why September School Holidays Are Perfect for Bike Hire
September school holidays create the perfect conditions for Margaret River bike hire. The weather’s warming up (18-22°C), wildflowers are blooming, and you’ve got two weeks to really explore without the summer crowds. Plus, starting with a long weekend means families can ease into their holiday rhythm.
This timing is gold for families – the kids are off school, parents can take some time off, and everyone’s ready for an adventure. Plus, with our new family equipment, we can now cater to everyone from toddlers to grandparents.
Book early for school holidays: September school holidays are always busy for Margaret River bike hire. With the long weekend start, demand peaks fast – especially for our premium e-bikes and family equipment.
New Trek Rail E-Bikes: Perfect for Wooditjup
Our brand new Trek Rail 7 Gen 3 full suspension e-bikes have just arrived, and they’re absolute weapons for the Margaret River trails. These aren’t your typical e-bike rental – they’re premium mountain bikes with full suspension and enough power to tackle anything Wooditjup throws at you.
Wooditjup: Where the Trek Rails Shine
Wooditjup’s 30+ kilometres of purpose-built single track is where these Trek Rail e-bikes really come alive. The full suspension handles the technical sections, while the e-bike assistance means you can tackle the climbs and ride for hours without getting exhausted.
Perfect for families too – parents can keep up with the kids on the easier green trails, or tackle the challenging black runs knowing the e-bike will get them home. These bikes open up possibilities that just weren’t there with regular mountain bike hire.
Family Bike Hire: Baby Seats & Trailers
This is huge for families – we’ve just added premium baby seats and bike trailers to our Margaret River bike hire fleet. Now families with toddlers and young kids can explore places like the Busselton foreshore and Wadandi Track safely and comfortably.
Busselton & Wadandi: Perfect for Families
The Busselton foreshore is ideal for bike trailers – flat, sealed paths with amazing views and plenty of spots to stop for coffee and ice cream. Meanwhile, the Wadandi Track’s 23km rail trail is perfect for longer family adventures.
What makes this special is the safety and comfort. The bike trailers are weather-protected, and the baby seats are fully certified. Parents can relax and enjoy the ride knowing the little ones are secure and happy.
Pro tip: Start early and plan your coffee stops. There’s something deeply satisfying about earning your flat white with a bit of pedaling. Plus, the cafes along the Wadandi are some of the best in the region.
Wine Country: Because Why Not?
Look, I know what you’re thinking – cycling and wine tasting don’t exactly go hand in hand. But hear me out. Margaret River’s wine country is incredibly bike-friendly, and most cellar doors are more than happy to look after your bikes while you taste.
The trick is planning your route so you’re not overdoing it. Hit 2-3 wineries max, pace yourself, and maybe make one of them your lunch stop. Places like Cape Mentelle and Xanadu have beautiful grounds that are perfect for a leisurely ride between tastings.
