Coastal Wine Cycles

Thanks for finding us in the vastness of the Internet. We're a young, dynamic, fun company that loves cycling, wine, the ocean, beach, rivers, peaks, fields, orchards, long lunches, and of course sunny days and friends to enjoy them with. Our business is about providing experiences. Our kick-ass bikes and awesome location helps us to do this. We have classic beach cruiser bikes from California for hire. They have wide comfortable seats (no wedgies!), swept back handlebars, baskets, bells, and oversize tires….perfect for relaxed cycling. We are conveniently located right on the Kidnappers Cycle Trail, our driveway connects to the off-road limestone pathway network. We are surrounded by a hub of activities and attractions, making it super easy to be right in the action of it. We have recommended self-guided rides ranging from 6km to 25km or you are welcome to explore your own way. We are the ideal group activity for reunions, celebrations and corporate team building.

Brilliant! We loved our 4 hour cycle hire , don't miss doing this. Murray the owner was delightful and so helpful. Maps and all advice and recommended circuits given in great detail. I always worry how comfortable the bikes saddles will be (!) but these were THE MOST comfortable saddles and bikes we've ever rented. No sore backside at all, and I had had a hip replacement just 4 months beforehand :) We did the circuit from Te Awanga up the Tuki Tuki estuary and river, beautiful. Then left into the gorgeous farmland and into the vineyards. Easy smooth tracks and quiet roads. Back to the coast, and make sure you (book ahead as so popular) and have a delicious lunch at Clearview Winery. We went back for a 2nd visit it was so good there - delicious foods served by French staff, exquisite wines. Good playground there if you are bringing children.

The Mountain Bike Station can show you the real reason why Ruapehu has become the must-do destination for mountain bikers of all skills and thrills.

We used Mountain Bike Station as our bike shuttle service to get us to the start of the first two parts of the mountain to sea cycle trail: the mountain rd and the old coach rd, and I am so glad we did! I chose them after my normal extensive internet/google/TA search as they had amazing reviews and this is another one to add to their collection. Firstly, all my back and forth emails were replied to by Steph and we were given all the information and options that I asked for promptly. Secondly, their service is awesome! When we rocked up on the day of our trip I was mortified to learn I had given them the wrong date! Did they say “ sorry, we can’t do anything for you.. your bad luck..or make me feel bad for such a dumb mistake.. Nope, Steph was so nice about my “senior moment” and jumped on the phone for a pow wow with her manager to try to find a solution. After only a few minutes we were rearranged and managed to be scheduled for both of our rides and all with a smile and great professionalism. I couldn’t apologise enough for mucking up both days and they were very polite about it! After what could have been a very disappointing day, we ended up having a brilliant two rides thanks to the Mountain Bike Station. If we ever decide to do the rest of the Mountain to sea trail we would definitely chose go with this team after the great service we received. They also have a bike hire service and at the back of the store there looks like a cool clip and climb adventure space. All the staff were lovely but we especially want to thank Stephanie for her “ can do” attitude and helpful , friendly professionalism. I highly recommend their service!
