I can ride a bike now! I learned so much, THANK YOU!

MaureenRider

I really look forward to riding with each of the various groups & can’t believe there are so many paths & trails to be ridden locally & beyond. I am amazed at the kilometres I have ridden & destinations travelled to on the bike. It’s a fantastic community activity & loads of fun while keeping both body & mind fit & active

Lesley B.Rider

Our group started off with 2 and now there are 6 of us ladies that ride regularly on a Wednesday and someone called us “The Wednesday Wenches” a name that we think suited us and we have retained. It is not unusual for us to hop on a train from Salisbury down to Seaford or Adelaide to ride one of the many bike tracks that inevitably lead us to a nice café for coffee, cake and a chat.

Before joining Cycle Salisbury, I had no idea of how many beautiful places there were to ride a bike. It really opened my eyes
