What "Powered by the Valley" Actually Means

What "Powered by the Valley" Actually Means

It means your ride along the Tweed Valley Rail Trail is genuinely sustainable — not just in name.

But "Powered by the Valley" means more than solar panels and eco ponchos. It means being genuinely embedded in this community — knowing the café owners, the farmers, the trail volunteers, and the small businesses that make this region worth riding through in the first place.

When you hire an e-bike with Valley E-Bikes on the Northern Rivers Rail Trail, every aspect of your experience is designed around real, practical sustainability — and real, local connection:

  • Solar-charged in Murwillumbah — our entire e-bike fleet is charged using solar panels installed at our base in South Murwillumbah
  • Locally owned and family run — your money stays in the Tweed Valley, supporting a local family business at the heart of the community
  • Connected to the trail community — we know the cafés, producers, and local businesses along the trail and actively send riders their way, because a thriving trail means thriving towns
  • Supporting Tweed Valley businesses — from Murwillumbah to Stokers Siding, Burringbar, Mooball, and Crabbes Creek, the people along this trail are our neighbours. We're proud to help visitors discover them
  • Filtered water refill station — free access at our hire location, helping riders reduce single-use plastic bottles on the trail
  • Reusable eco rain ponchos — we provide reusable and biodegradable ponchos, so you're not adding disposable plastic to landfill
  • Reef-safe sunscreen — protecting the waterways, farmland, and wildlife of the Tweed Valley from harmful chemical runoff
  • On-site recycling systems — responsible waste management built into our everyday operations

This isn't a business that operates near the trail. It's a business that's part of it.

From the historic tunnel near Stokers Siding to the farmland surrounding Burringbar and the open stretches toward Mooball, this trail runs through our home region. We ride it. We maintain bikes for it. We protect it.
