This group is administered by Heather. Send her a message through her page. Members, please contact Heather to receive the free monthly newsletter.

Some links to AC forum posts that relate to ACC will be found here. Add requests for cycling facilities or cycling hazard fixes, and I will check them out before forwarding to ACC. If simple to fix like a pothole, please email full details with subject of cycling hazard to city@adelaidecitycouncil.com.

Some potential new members have asked about Adelaide BUG rides. Perhaps we could organise an occasional ride, or a meet up for coffee, especially during lunchtime for city commuters. We could organise a cycling tour of historic sites or buildings, or a byo picnic in the parklands. Let me know if you are interested.

Please post Adelaide hazards here so we can discuss and I report to ACC.

I understand that this month a cyclist was seriously inured when he hit wires newly erected across a cycling route.

Please show your support to help repeal the mandatory helmet law by voting on this Getup! suggestion.

Lets help make Adelaide the city of bicycles.

An invite to Adelaide BUG members to attend on Saturday 3-Sep-2011 a BYO picnic for Prospect BUG’s second anniversary. Meet at noon at the playground near the Adelaide Aquatic Centre for a leisurely ride to Botanic Park. Arrange your picnic rug on the grass between Botanic Drive and the Zoological Gardens, within sight of a bird aviary. Remember to bring soft drinks and games for your children. RSVP appreciated. http://www.adelaidecyclists.com/events/prospect-bug-s-second-annive...

I coordinate both groups.

Flew into Adelaide this arvo, noticed some works in the area outlined below that looks like a new road or path.

Would be good if it is joining the area where the cars are parked to the existing path as the gravel section between the end of Gaol road and the bike path gets a bit ordinary when its wet.
