Intro

We look forward to welcoming you to the ballyhouras

Trailriders Bike Rental/Shop is based at the trailhead of the 92km Ballyhoura Bike Trails in Ardpatrick, Co. Limerick, and Co. Cork. Established in 2007, our core business is bike rental and we offer a professional and friendly service as seen on RTÉ Nationwide, No Frontiers, Tracks & Trails and most recently RTÉ's At Your Service.

Chris O'Callaghan and Liam Sheehy run Trailriders in Ballyhoura Forest. Both, Chris & Liam, are very keen mountain bikers with a lot of experience biking throughout Europe.

Our aim is to ensure that every customer enjoys the mountain bike experience at Ballyhoura and will return! We are happy to advise our customers of the best route and trails to meet their individual needs.

Local Legend

Home To World Champion - Oisín O'Callaghan

The practice grounds await you. Local youngster Oisín O'Callaghan started biking on the same trails you are about to ride. His practice and passion led him to become a World Champion and to race mountain bikes as a profession.

Back in 2007 Oisín was only 4 and rode the purpose built single-tracks. Once bitten by the bug, there was no going back. Despite Oisín having to train abroad for the more serious terrain, he still does most of his winter training in Ballyhoura - getting big distance and staying in shape both physically and technically.

There is a huge re-build of the trails locally in 2022 so we are confident the changes will make things easier and more fun. It is for sure going to nurture the next champion and also fill the appetite of the most recent champion who is still at the beginning of his career.

Oisín always loves coming home and getting out with the locals and enjoy what's on offer. If it's good enough for our World Champion, it's good enough for us!
