The full eBike course is $49 — but if you're on a hire bike, you only need this.

The essentials for a shared bike — nothing you don't need

You don't own the bike, so there's no charging, locking or maintenance to learn. Just the parts that keep you safe and fine-free.

🚦

Australian road rules, fast

Where you can ride, giving way, and lights at night — the essentials across all states, in plain English.

🚶

Shared paths & pedestrians

Popular paths get busy. Keep left, slow down, and give way to people on foot — the rules are consistent Australia-wide.

⛑️

The attached helmet

Helmets are mandatory in every state. Every share bike comes with one — how to wear and adjust it correctly.

🅿️

Ending your ride right

Designated parking bays, no-go and go-slow zones, the end-trip photo — and avoiding parking fines wherever you ride.

🧭

New to Australia or visiting?

A quick primer for visitors who have never ridden under Australian road rules.

Shared bikes have their own rules

🅿️

Parking is enforced

Shared bikes use geofencing. End your trip outside a designated bay and you can be charged extra — or fined. We show you how to do it right.

🚫

No-go & go-slow zones

Some areas block riding or auto-slow your bike. Knowing where saves you a sudden stop in the wrong spot.

Nothing to maintain

The operator charges, locks and services the bike — so we skip all of that and keep it short.
