Thanks Andrew. Will give it a look. Chainreaction in UK are also pretty good, but you need to order a few things at a time to make the postage worthwhile
Wanted: Shimano Deore or Deore XT Rear Derailleur. My son has banged up his mountain bike, stuffed the rear derailleur, can't afford a new one. If anyone has a reasonable condition used one, please let me know.
Have a pair of brand new, unused, still in package Panaracer Stradius Sport 700 x 23c 250g blue foldable all weather sport tyres. Bought by mistake and no longer required. Yours for $25 the pair. Pick up from Malvern (near corner of Cross and Duthy…
All true. But ..... I'd rather have roads dominated by Toyota Priuses (prii?), than the current dominance by heavy, ugly, gas guzzling, view obstructing, aggressive driving 4WDs. Sure, it would be great to have roads dominated by bicycles. But as an…

I've long had the impression that there are a high proportion of petrol heads amongst the police. This is why I reckon they turn a blind eye to so many traffic infringements. How is it, for instance, that so many motorbikes and souped up cars can ge…
Thanks Heather. Sounds like you've had some response at least. I reported a driver who shot across a mini roundabout in front of me whilst he was talking on a mobile phone. Never heard anything more about it. Would be good if they gave some feedback…
Sorry Mike, it never really got off the ground.
A few weeks back there was some run by bikeSA that were subsidised by Ecoversity if you were part of the North Terrace Precinct bike users group (NTPBUG), and they were filled up, so there may be some cheap ones coming up. There is always the usual ones run by BikeSA or by WEA.

It's a great time to join with the Ride To Work day this week. I / we hope you get something out of this community. You can post forum discussions, blog posts, upload photos and videos (and embed from YouTube) and, as you've discovered join a group -or start your own.
Cheers
Angus
