Motorbike news upcoming rides and updates by Thrill Rider

testimonialsMarch 2010 Update

Hey Everyone,

We are currently working on 3 great ideas for those of you who don't have a motorbike but would like access to one every now and again.

Idea One: We will be implementing an last minute booking request system where you will be able to get notifications to get the bike for half price for the weekend ahead. Keep a look-out for this on our front page.

How it will work:

1. You will have to register to receive txt messages from us.

2. You will receive a txt message on your telephone when the bike is available at half price

3. If you are the first to call, you get thee bike at half price.

Idea Two: We are trying to set-up a "toys club". By the end of this year we will add a few more cool toys to our fleet (such as jetskis and smaller boats). If you are interested, make sure you let us know.

Idea Three: We would like to know which bikes you want to hire. So, a waiting list will be set-up for the newest model motorbikes. This way you get the bike you want, and we keep growing our fleet with the best motorbikes available.

Feel free to send us an email whenever you want. If you have any ideas of your own, we would love to hear from you!

Keep smiling! And ride safe... Nick

testimonialsSat Aug 29th 2009 Ride

Steve suggested we head to Kyogle, NSW this Saturday for a full-day ride.  I'd like to organise this one from Slacks Creek for all of our Brisbane and Gold Coast Riders.

Here are the details: 

Meeting at Unit 12, 8 Springlands Dr, Slacks Creek, 4127 (that is right off the M1 highway, exit number 26)


Time: 8:30 for a 9am start

2nd Meeting point for those riders from the Gold Coast:  Outpost Cafe, Canungra (Expected time 9:45-10am)

Destination: Kyogle NSW
Difficulty: Easy to Intermediate

Visit: www.thrillrider.com.au/news for this ride info.

Notes:  This one will be another one of those easy rides.  We will not be speeding.  If you want to go fast, drop back and catch up.  This ride is about meeting some great people, having a few laughs, enjoying the scenery and riding on some great roads.

The weather looks perfect as of today: fine and 15C to 25C all day.  We will have 4-5 planned stops, and 1stop for lunch.  I expect that we should return around 4-5pm.

If anyone wants to suggest a few great places to stop, let me know.  And also, if you are coming, please reply to this email or give me a call.  We will wait for you if you are on your way.  (I know a few people missed out last week, but that was partly my fault and I will make sure it does not happen again -  but please call: Nick 0420 22 81 43)

Ride safe and keep smiling,
Nick

testimonialsSat and Sunday Rides

Ride Pics from Saturday are up!

Hey, Check out the Saturday August 8th 2009 Motorbike Ride Pics

Hey Everyone,


If you are not doing anything important this Saturday or Sunday, come out for a ride or two.

Ride 1: Sat 8th Aug 2009

I've organized a short ride for Saturday, leaving from the Soul z Bar (Chevron Island - GC) and heading through the Hinterland.  We haven't decided on the exact route, but I think well head up to Mt Tambourine and Beechmont for this one.

Meeting: Soul z Bar - Chevron Island - GC - Thomas Dr.
When: 8:45 for a 9am start.

Everyone welcome.  We will just take it easy through the mountains for about 4 hours or so.

Ride 2:  Sunday 9th Aug 2009

This one is a bit longer.  Same meeting spot.  Soul z Bar - Chevron Island.  I would like to head up to ORileys, but we'd have to see how experienced everyone is before we can make that choice. 

Meeting: Soul z Bar - Chevron Island - GC - Thomas Dr.
When: 8:45 for a 9am start.

Everyone welcome.  We will aim to return around 3-4pm.

Email me if you are thinking of coming out.  Or give me a call on 0420228143 if you are on the way and would like us to wait for you.

Cheers,
Nick

Adrenalin Junkies Turn toMotorcycles

Adrenalin Junkies Turn to Motorcycles

Rough, rugged and tough looking hogs driving Harleys, not so long ago, they used to dominate the highways and freeways of the world. They were the road’s masters, intimidating all other motorists that travel along their path. Tough and rugged, most of these riders used to conform to this iconic image of masculinity. However, with the increased awareness and emphasis on the importance of riding safety, all that toughness seemed to have lost impact. More and more riders are cutting their riding time for maintenance; more riders are spending more time tinkering with their motorcycle than actually riding it. With that, the identity of today’s tough riders has softened up. Who’s the tough one now? Seems like that today’s riders have lost command of the roads that they used to reign. With the classic rider image in crisis, Nick Dinic of Thrill Rider has something else in mind, a solution that can bring back the toughness.

Nick Dinic, the owner-manager of ThrillRider.com.au is very much aware of how today’s riders have turned out. Everyone has developed a habit of checking the engine many times before hitting the road, prepping them up for safe adventures. Gone are the days that riders ignore and never treated rust, dust and grime as potential safety threats and just to go on their way. With the need for routine tune-up and maintenance, modern riders are more into preserving the power of their engine rather then putting them in tough and rough road test. Every piece of two-wheel rides are now kept shiny and grime-free, all the trouble in exchange for freedom to experience road adventure. Isn’t that what riders and meant for? So what’s there to do now? Thankfully, Nick’s expertise in motorcycle tours is now extended to Adrenalin.com.au. Now, adrenalin junkies are provided with more riding adventure possibilities with Nick’s rugged riding concept.

If there’s an expert on riding adventures, Nick is certainly it. From the company who capitalized on thrill-seekers never ending quest for on and off track adventure, he has created a new diversion for adrenalin junkies – the motorcycle tours. As a solution to the hassles of ensuring safe travel, Nick motor tours have introduced one fine solution to bringing back the toughness in today’s riders. The company offers classic rider motorcycle rentals for their guided and unguided motorcycle tours around Brisbane QLD, Australia. With that, all tough riders at heart will be relieved of the hassles of ride maintenance and just focus straight to the riding experience. All they need to do is pick up the phone, look up Thrill Rider and gear up for a road adventure like never before.

Nick, along with a team of motorcycle experts, takes hold of a fine selection of for-rent road rider motorcycles. All of which are kept in top-notch riding conditions and prepped up for safe road adventure. All of which offer a new kind of motoring adventure by spending their adrenalin holiday in a scenic Australia countryside. Aside from the well-maintained rides, Nick’s carefully planned routes keep Australian countryside motor tours and Adrenalin experiences safe. Fast and monstrous motorbikes and breathtaking sceneries while driving down Adrenalin’s select adventure routes, what else would make the greatest road adventure greater?

To Nick, hassle-free, rugged and tough road adventures is the key to giving today’s riders the image of commanding intimidation, one that made them dominate the roads not so long ago. Adrenalin motorcycle tours aim to bring back the toughness in all great riders’ eyes. It’s time to be a true rider once again. Join Nick in his next road quest. Check out ThrillRider.com.au and Adrenalin.com.au and watch out for the next big adrenalin experience.
