Dolphin Link

by Geoff 22. August 2011 23:44

Dolphins are often seen in the Swan River behind About Bike Hire. Kayak and bike hirers alike are encouraged to report sightings to Dolphin Watch. This will assist the River Guardians program to protect this most beautiful Perth resident. Sightings of the new dolphin calf born just 3 weeks ago would be particularly important.

Another Award!

by Geoff 22. April 2011 08:22

About Bike Hire is proud to be the recipient of the 2011 Disability Services Commission Affiliate of the Year award. This was presented by the Honourable Minister for Mental Health, Helen Morton in a ceremony attended by about 100 of our valued customers and the Easter Bunny!

We have worked hard for nearly 20 years to provide a service to customers that have a disability and it is gratifying to receive recognition in this way.   

This follows our acceptance of the 2010 WA Disabled Sports Association Award. This was a fine way to recognise the support we have always given to disabled clients and their carers. The quadcycles in particular give many the opportunity to get some exercise whilst enjoying the fabulous Perth bike paths.

by Geoff 28. October 2010 04:27

We had a very enjoyable trip and it was made more memorable by people like yourselves (Dave, Jan and Liam) who showed us the true Aussie spirit. The Bicycle ride down the Swan River was a triple A+. We will remember Perth for that.
