Never too old to give it a go! - We were a group of 6 seniors, and with e-bikes, the rail trail was a breeze.... 50 km of sheer joy. The bike hire was so easy to do and every one was very helpful and friendly. 4 of us hadn't ridden bikes for a very long time and never an e-bike. The trail is a wonderful tour through the countryside with some magnificent views... great coffee and lunch spits along the way.

Best e-bikes hire company ever!! - The e-bikes provided by Better by Bike are first class. Excellent quality, power, and immaculately maintained. We had a thorough run down on how the e-bike operates and the bike's controls, etc. The staff are very friendly and obviously know their stuff. The Rail Trail itself from Murwillumbah to Crabbes Creek is one of the best we've encountered. Great information signage along the way and an easy grade. Plenty of shade going through arbours and quaint villages (sidings) you'd never come across driving the main roads. Great coffee and a cheerful reception at the Num Bum Cafe at Stokers Siding. The burgers at the Mooball Moo Moo Cafe are awesome. Well done to Better by Bike and the Shire Council for making this a truly memorable experience. Can't wait to ride this rail trail again. Five Stars well earned.

It really is better by bike - The rail trail ride is through forest and villages. We have done many rail trail rides in Australia and this one is outstanding. The service by the Better by Bike group was excellent, delivering the bikes to us at Mooball so we could ride south to north, and then arriving on time to collect them. They were professional and super-helpful

Northern Rivers Rail trail a must do. - Excellent service and the sales people were so friendly. The ride in itself is fantastic and the Moo Moo roadhouse is incredible. Great food nice friendly people running the show and happy. We got a flat tyre and the E Hire people were prompt at replacing the bike. So to those people leaving tacks on the path get a life the country is for everyone to enjoy.

Peter & Katja's Excellent Day Out - Highly recommend the Northern Rivers Rail Trail. Turnkey service offered by Better By Bike located track side at Murwillumbah station. Hied EBikes and smashed thew trail in under four hours which included a couple of stops (48kms total return). Will be recommending this activity to all. Great day out in stunning Northern Rivers countryside.

Great fun riding e-bikes! - Haven’t ridden a bike for decades so approached the e-bike adventure with a little trepidation. Leo from Better by Bike Murwillumbah provided a comprehensive introduction to E-bike operation and even took a photo of us next to the Rail Trail sign! 🙏 Had the best day. E-bike was so easy & fun we rode the full 49 kms with a couple of stops along the way - we’ll be back for sure. 👍 🌈

Fantastic bike trail - This is a great rail trail, not too hard a ride. My brother and I did the return ride (48k) which was just enough. The guys at Better by Bike were really good, very helpful, and the bike (a pedal commuter version) was excellent. The bike came with a helmet and front light for the tunnel. The tunnel has no lighting as there are microbat colonies in it, so you need a light, but great experience. I’d recommend the track and the bike hire to anyone.
