Hills Bicycle Project making Adelaide more
accessible by bicycle.
Sustainable Communities is a grassroots organisation which
seeks to actively support members learn about
sustainability and find ways to reduce their ecological
footprint. With over 20 locally-based groups throughout
South Australia, a range of initiatives are on offer to
help people make better lifestyle choices.
Hills and undulating terrain can be a limiting factor for
residents that wish to commute large distances by bicycle.
Recognising this, Adelaide Hills Sustainable Communities
now offer short-term loans for bicycle electric conversion
kits to those living in the Adelaide Hills or broader
area. Kits can also be borrowed from the Sustainable
Communities group at Royston Park.
For further information contact Sustainable Communities SA
on 8363 2295 or
http://www.facebook.com/hillselectricbikeproject
and click on 'info' to find out about hiring a kit (must
be 18 years of age or over).
Take advantage of the chance to try before you buy -
providing a fantastic opportunity for those who currently
find distance or hilly conditions a barrier to commuting
by bicycle.
