I am bringing the August Adelaide Bromptoneering Social Ride forward by one week from Sunday 31 August to Sunday 24 August.
The reason for this change, is that, I will be riding the Port Fairy Rail trail with the Melbourne Brompton Club. If you’d like to join us you can get details from the Melbourne Brompton Club. They also have a Facebook Group.
Hope to see you on the 24th of August and maybe the 30th and 31st!?

This blog started more than twenty years ago with our 2004 trip to the United Stated and Canada. This holiday was a turning point in our lives – we came back knowing that we needed to get fitter. It was, in some ways, the true genesis of our riding life and ultimately our life and travels with Brompton Bikes.
As I looked back over our first blog, I recall what it was like trying to blog without an iPhone. We had to rush into local internet hotspots in libraries and such. The big issue was whether we could even get the photos off our camera to upload. There were plenty of promises to upload photos later. 20 years later, I have now uploaded the missing photos and corrected some spelling mistakes! If you are interested, you can revisit our 2004 holiday. See our 33-year-old selves by following this link > https://bromptoneering.blog/category/bromptoneering-or-bust/2004-usa/?order=asc
Since the first post about our itinerary in 2004, we posted 979 other posts (including this one) from all over the world. Our first trip had a total of 54 posts.
In 2025 and beyond we will continue with our travel blogging. We are, however, going to add some posts about riding in Adelaide both with and without Brompton Bikes. So if you have already subscribed to this blog you will receive all of the posts. If you would like to change that, visit the blog site. You can select the sort of posts you want to get.

| Overview | This ride is one of my favourite rides. A version of it was done in 2024 and it was brought back from the Tour Down Under as part of Brompton Australia’s ride program. It was certainly a hot at the 5:00pm start. While a gelato at 48 Flavour cooled us down, if you are considering this route during summer a latter start would be good. You’ll just need to check on the opening hours for Reggies Detroit Pizzas. This ride was on a Sunday which unfortunately had an early closing time and necessitated the early start. |
