Baringa Bikes Director, Scott Durston said the business commenced in the Aura Business Park after relocating from a site in Caloundra and rebranding as the new Baringa-based business.

“I chose the Aura Business Park because it is a growing area and there are a lot of locals that ride bikes and scooters to school and work and enjoy the extensive network of cycleways in Aura,” said Mr Durston.

“The location is also close to the Caloundra city centre, providing access to great mountain bike tracks.”

Charlotte Buckley, Stockland Community Development Manager said that Aura was fast becoming a hub for successful businesses on the Sunshine Coast.

“We are pleased to welcome Baringa Bikes as a recent addition to the Aura Business Park,” said Ms Buckley.

“With its key infrastructure already in place, the Aura Business Park attracts a diverse range of entrepreneurs and companies and is an important employment hub for the community.

“The success of the thriving business park makes it easier for locals to live, work and play close to home.”

Whether you're a seasoned cyclist, a commuter, or a family looking to enjoy a weekend ride or scoot, Baringa Bikes caters to all. The shop boasts an extensive range of bicycles, scooters and everything in between. The knowledgeable and friendly staff are passionate about matching customers with the perfect ride for their needs.

“At Baringa Bikes we are a one-stop shop and offer a range of bikes, from the low-end commuter-style bikes right through to professional setups, and we also sell a range of products and accessories,” said Mr Durston.

“I love being able to help the community and we have a service department that is now fully set up and I expect to expand this over time.”

Baringa Bikes isn't just a business; it's a hub for the local cycling community. Not only are the team a wealth of cycling knowledge, they actively engage with customers by delivering free events.

“We bring to the Aura community a free bicycle maintenance night, which runs every couple of months, where people can learn to look after their bikes and e-scooters to save themselves money in the long run.”

The vision for the business is to continue to grow and expand with the Aura community and encourage residents to live an active lifestyle, taking advantage of the more than 200km of veloways on completion.

“Riding a bike or e-scooter is a great way to discover a new area when you move into a community and is a great way of keeping up your fitness too.”
