What do you love most about gravel? Is it the synergy of the 'fast' road & 'fun' MTB riding experience in one? Is it the sense of adventure that comes with hunting out the road less travelled regardless of the surface? Or is it the refreshingly inclusive, non-competitive nature of gravel riding that welcomes such a broad range of taste & speed? 
Whatever you love about gravel, we want to share more of it with you riding in the Northern Rivers. We've loved hosting more gravel rides recently and can't wait for this weekend's Sunday Social Club x 'Nightcap' edition for Eltham. Roll-out Sunday 24 November @ 8am for 55km to Minyon Falls, and don't forget to join us for lunch to finish. Full ride details & RSVP via the 'Upcoming Rides' link in our bio. See you there 😄

First look: Nytro E5 electric gravel bike. Created with adventure in mind, delivered with the meticulous attention to detail you expect from a brand with the pedigree of Pinarello. T700 Toray carbon frame | HPR50 drive unit | Rival AXS 12 speed wireless shifting
We're sad to see this beauty leave the shop already, but equally excited for what adventures lie ahead as she heads off with her new owner for many fun weekends on gravel 
It's exciting times ahead working with Pinarello as we continue to expand our portfolio of industry-leading brands available at Lifecycles Byron Bay. Are you looking to upgrade and not sure what the best bike is to suit your sizing, style & budget? We believe that bike purchasing is an experience that shouldn’t just be limited to ‘what’s in stock’ but rather a process that connects your needs with what’s on the market. Working with a diverse selection of leading brands, from recognised household names to local handmade frame builders, our aim is to provide you the most comprehensive bike purchasing experience. To inquire about your next dream bike build, follow the 'Bike Finder' link in our bio or contact us at the shop

Is your bike 'gravel ready' for tomorrow's Sunday Cycle Club loop from Eltham to Minyon Falls? If you're planning to ride, we'd recommend coming setup with at least 35mm wide gravel tyres for the unsealed sections. If you're coming along with less girth than that, please be sure to ride cautiously on the gravel sections particularly the ride up and down Nightcap NP.
A reminder to arrive at Eltham by 7:45am so you can be set up and listen to the ride briefing before we roll out at 8:00am. Most importantly, leave time after the ride to join us for lunch . There are tables reserved from midday and first round at the pub is on us for everyone riding 🍻
