Pedalling the Electric Dream

24 February 2012

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.
