Richard, last I heard was north along King William for a photo-stop in Elder Park. Then Torrens bike path to ? - Botanic Gardens previously. Hopefully see Darren this evening for confirmation. If no tweed, 'period' dress. A suit if you like, or anything that looks a little from a by-gone era. Old woollen jumpers etc are good, corduroy. Paisley, tartan etc. A bow tie, or a cravatte, woollen scarf or similar. Come along, enjoy the day - get some ideas for next year!

Sorted, outfit purchased for the grand total of $3! Grab a Free City Bike from Franklin Street if you want to get more of a vintage look?

@ Vin - you'll be welcome, slow is the order of the day. It's the 29th, are you here then?

Hullo Adelaide Cyclists. I'm a member under false pretences as I live in Darwin, not Adelaide. But I'll be visiting Adelaide on 31 July, and will have a steed (trusty? perhaps) available, so will be there if I can.
Depends a bit on my minders.
Are there any penalties for getting lost? Are slow riders welcome?
Sounds like fun, looking forward to being there, if I can make it.
