July 2026 Adelaide Bromptoneering Update

Next Ride

The next ride is on 19 July 2026 leaving from The Ed in Mitcham.

*** Reminder *** we are again having “Coffee Outside” please bring a warm drink of your preference.

We will be bringing some sweets and a few spare cups of coffee. If you’d like bake something let us know.

Remembering good times

Vanessa posted some great photos on Facebook of her Brompton along the Torrens recounting some of June 2026 Social Ride. Please keep the submissions coming.

If you’d like to re-ride an Adelaide Bromptoneering route, then head over to the Adelaide Urban Adventures page where we have more than 24 months of Adelaide Bromptoneering rides.

Helen and I recently re-rode the Coopers Brewery route and had a great time. We noticed a few minor improvements that could be made. We will make those improvements so that the next person who rides finds it even better.

Let us know that you have re-ridden a route by posting some photos. If you find some issues with the route let us know so we can update and improve the information on the Adelaide Urban Adventures page.

Brisbane Takeover 2027

The dates have been set for the Brisbane Takeover. They are Monday 19 to Friday 23 July.

Like Canberra there will be 5 days of riding Adelaide Bromptoneering style. I have just returned from doing the reccy. I am very happy with the routes. If you are interested in joining us please register on Brisbane Takeover page. There is a cap on the number of riders that can participate and this will be determined by the date a person registers interest.

Change to the venue for the October 2026 Adventure Ride

The original plan was to visit Gawler River Brewing near Angle Vale. I do recommend visiting this brewery as it has good beer, food and vibe! But, I cannot recommend it as a ride.

I was planning to ride in the local area and the eastern side of the Northern Expressway where the older suburbs and public transport is located. Despite there being an off-road cycle path in Angle Vale, I could not find a single safe cycling or pedestrian route to cross the Northern Expressway. It is only about 600 metres from Angle Vales off-road cycle path to the Stuart O’Grady Bikeway. It seems to me that the State and Local Governments are denying autonomy to young adults and are locking the north into a car only future. Surely, this is not a good outcome.

We will move our adventure ride to Onkaparinga, which in my opinion has some of the best riding in Adelaide. We will visit Unit Three Collective and do a loop around the Souther Suburbs.
