Where riders go, businesses grow
About Ride the State
Australia's cycling hub — trails, clubs, events, and the bike-friendly spots that make a ride day work.
Our founder
Built by riders, for riders
“I'm Lizy Timm — rider, mountain biker, and founder of Ride the State. I got tired of hunting across a dozen websites and Facebook pages just to plan a weekend, so I started building the hub I wanted as a rider: trails, clubs, events, and the bike-friendly spots that make a ride day work.”
— Lizy Timm, Founder
