Where have you been riding lately?
It's pretty wet and muddy out there, but oh so fun!

Have you found this challenging skinny/rollover in the forest just off the Indigo Epic MTB trail yet? Hint: it's on the Beechworth side.

Shuttles!

Running Saturdays and Sundays, "Old Mate" Troopy and its cracking new Shingleback Off Road trailer are ready to make your life easier when you ride the Indigo Epic MTB trail or the Beechworth-Yack rail trail.

The Ride Republic shuttle service is timetabled, and we've set it so that you can pick and choose how and what you want to ride between the two towns:

1. Shuttle from the Old Beechworth Gaol to Wallaby Mine Track on the Indigo Epic trail. Then ride the Epic back to Beechworth, or ride the descent down to Yack before hopping on a shuttle back to Beechworth.

2. Shuttle from the Gaol to Yack. Ride the Epic or the Rail Trail back to Beechworth.

3. Ride Beechworth to Yack or Yack to Beechworth, then grab a shuttle back home.

You don't need to hire a bike from us to ride our shuttle. (But if you do need to hire one we have some lovely E-MTBs!)

It's Easter! Visiting Beechworth and Yackandandah for a holiday break is awesome all year round, but autumn and Easter are the best of the best. The colours of the trees, the crisp, clear weather, the crackling woodfires in the evenings ... it's truly magical.

If you're heading to Beechworth with your family or friends and are looking for a fun day out then our Picnic at Woolshed Falls ride package should be on your to do list. We send you off on the E-MTBs with a delicious lunch to enjoy as you relax and take in the spectacle of the Falls.

All the info is on our website at RideRepublic.cc. Book online ahead of time to be sure of getting a bike!

We love love LOVE how approachable the Indigo Epic's Beechworth descent is. There's a little climb from the shuttle uplift point (easy on an e-bike), then a smooth, sculpted descent almost all the way home with berms, rollers and jumps that suit everyone from experienced senders to budding shredders.

Ride the whole Beechworth loop on one of our E-MTBs or shuttle up to Wallaby Mine with your own bike and get into it!

We're back! After a long Facebook hiatus, Ride Republic is back online. The Ride Republic website has had a refresh, and we'll be back on Instagram shortly too.

And we have some news! Beechworth and Yackandandah have some cool new cycling trails - the Indigo Epic MTB Trail and the Beechworth to Yackandandah Rail Trail - so to help you make the most of them we've revamped our E-MTB hire and set up four new ride packages.

Have you had a chance to ride the new trails yet? Now's the time to head to Beechworth and get stuck in! Our hardtail E-MTBs are just perfect for ripping down the Epic's flow descents or rolling through the farmland on the trail to Yack.
