Virgin Mobile Is Giving Away Bikes


In Summer there’s no better mode of transport than a bicycle. Traveling on two-wheels means you can simultaneously get from A to B and make the most of the splendid weather. Don’t have a bike? Here’s your chance to score a brand spankin’ new model for free.

Virgin Mobile are giving away 25 premium pushbikes each week for the next three weeks through a kind of bicycle scavenger hunt which launches today. For this spectacularly generous initiative, called ‘A Fair Ride For All’, Virgin Mobile are hiding bikes in secret locations in Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, Perth and Brisbane each day and releasing clues on where to find them at FairRide.com.au.

The variety of cycling swag includes Fixies, Racers, BMXs, Mount bikes and City bikes ranging in value from $600 to $1500 each. No joke!

So here’s the low down: simply ‘like’ the hunt for the bike (or bikes) you want to win at FairRide.com.au on your laptop, mobile or tablet device to receive alerts when new clues are released. It is then up to you to get out and about and hunt it down. The first to locate the bike and unlock it using the code provided gets to ride it home (with a helmet provided of course!). For extra tips follow the hashtag #FairRide.

The hunt runs til 16 December. On yer bike!
