 | Seeing as what I am going to visit the Devil this coming week, does anyone in Adelaide want to go for a ride?
(and having it towards the end of my stay gives me plenty of time to practice!)
I intend to go Blackwood/Meadows/Macclesfield/Strath because I like that run, but am open to suggestions.
Probably pick up a pie or something in Strath.
Any takers?

The advantage of a small light bike finding tight twisty roads. Heaps of fun at the speed limit!

Sounds good as any.
At least this time I remember where Unley Road is!
First time I got back to Adelaide after about 5 years away, I had this bizarre disconnect where I couldn't remember where things were. For example, being driven to the city from the airport, I recall thinking 'The Hilton Hotel is just coming up' but I had *no* idea where the Hilton was in relation to the city - no idea how far away, or even what side of town. When I was visiting people, I just started riding and waited for instinct and remembered landmarks to kick in.
Luckily Adelaide changes so little that this is possible...
