At the weekend Ride Whitsundays, a local bike shop and community hub in the Whitsundays, celebrated its third birthday.
Owners Cole and Kerr Claxton, locals to the Whitsundays with backgrounds in tourism and action sports, are passionate about building a vibrant cycling and mountain biking hub for the community, where enthusiasts of all levels can connect and explore the sport.
Cole Claxton expressed his excitement about reaching the three-year milestone:
“We’re incredibly excited. I can’t believe it’s already been three years.
“We're locals with a love for outdoor adventures—biking, motocross, camping—and a deep connection to nature. From the start, we aimed to create a space that brings the community together around those shared passions."
Cole and Kerr are excited about the future growth of their business, with plans to expand both their tourism offerings and potentially launch a coaching program tailored to young girls and women riders.
“If you want to help expand biking in the area—whether it’s mountain biking, bike paths, or just making the town more bike-friendly—get the word out, support the club, and reach out to the Council.
“It takes momentum to make it happen, and we need all the help we can get.”
