You could call Treadly a hipster bike shop. And well, it is. But that doesn't mean it's not great…read more Treadly deals in single speed, fixed gear and classic bikes, all designed for those who ride and commute as part of their lifestyle, and want to maintain fashion while on their bikes. My partner and I don't usually fit into this category. We are somewhat more 'hardcore' cyclists, or perhaps you'd call us sports cyclists. However, my man loves this shop because he is building himself a fixed speed bike. The shop people love him because he's a geek, and collectively they get their geek on about bike parts and gear and construction. This is a great little place to come in for a chat or to find out about what's available in terms of commuter bikes. Every time I've been in the shop the owner's dog has been in residence, curled up on an old vinyl couch/chair, awkwardly forcing his lanky limbs into the space that just wasn't designed for him. He isn't overly impressed by people disturbing his sleep for a pat, however he will accept tributes if he's awake and in a good mood. Their dog highlights this business's focus on lifestyle, and how they aim to help bike-lovers to personalise their chosen mode of transport, and allow for a little art to creep into their commute.

Treadly fits in perfectly with the 'hipster' surroundings of Ebenezer Place. The growing hipster…read morepopularity includes riding 'fixies'. If you are not familiar with this term, 'fixies' are single-speed bikes that generally have no breaks. If you want to be part of this phenomenon, Treadly is your place to go. They have a small, yet delightful range of fixed-gear bikes. They are quite pricey, but you are paying for quality and looks. Many online shops offer similar bikes for half the price but they are made no-where near as well and are definitely not as attractive. The service at Treadly is great, very personal and helpful. They are willing to do almost anything to make sure your bike is exactly how you want it and that you are happy. Treadly also helps people to create their own customized bike from scratch. They sell or can order in the pieces you need to do this. The shop also has a large range of accessories. Bike lights, shoes, locks and helmets! Their helmets are very cool, such as one with the Union Jack, making helmet hair slightly more bearable.

Adelaide is essentially flat so it is a great place to ride a bike. The city has several off road…read morebike tracks that you can travel along all the way down to the stunning Henley Beach or up into the foothills. Now if you are living here and you don't have a bike how would you feel if I told you there's one available to you during the day at FREE CITY BIKES? All you need is either a drivers license or a passport - and if you have not got either of those you need to get a proof of age card from the Department of Motor Transport. You are able to go in with your suitable ID and basically take out a bike in good working order, a helmet, because you can not legally ride a bike here without wearing a helmet, and you can go for a healthy bike ride along a decent bike track - how about that! The bicycle track network around the city is pretty good and there are so many places you can get to without really using all your energy, I couldn't encourage you more! You do not have to be a tourist to use this great initiative made available by the Adelaide City Council and Bikes SA. You can join Bikes SA if you would like to - just collect the details at the pick up spot next door to the Central Bus Station on Franklin Street. Check it out - one of the best kept secrets in Adelaide and a really healthy one at that!

When I first got here, I wished someone had told me about this, because Adelaide really is a great city to bike around. Located just opposite the bus station on Grote street, you can catch a bus into the city or park in Chinatown before heading over and grabbing a bike. If you have friends who are new in town or you and some friends are out of ideas of what to do, get some bikes and cycle along the Torrens river until you reach the beach, which is roughly a 40 to 45 minute bike ride and very straight forward. Their bicycles are in good condition and they lend you helmets and locks as well so that you can park your bikes at a destination while you have a look around or head somewhere to grab a bite to eat. One of the best ways to experience Adelaide and to get some exercise as well. The last time I rented a bike from them, it was to show a friend who'd flown in for a few days quickly around town. It really is enjoyable, especially when you're someone who has come from a city where the roads are not bicycle friendly and the air is just rank with pollution. It is a nice change and Adelaide has some beautiful scenery which I take for granted way too often. When I'm thinking of a fun free way to spend the weekend on a day with good weather, I think of Bike SA.
