Some of the Pedallers are heading off for some awesome tours.
Peter and Lana Sheridan are heading off to cycle through France and Spain in April and will be away three months. Did a bit of practise on the windy weekend of the 27th &28th of February. Cycle to Coffin Bay took 2 ¼ hours to get there and 3 ½ hours to get back the next day. Jeff has kindly offered to do the newsletter whilst we are away. Thanks!
Raelene is off overseas to cycle with some old chums in May in Germany and France. Have a wonderful time! You can’t keep a good cyclist down!
Clem and Anna are off to warmer climes for the winter. See you in the spring!

Peninsula Pedallers about us.
This is the blog for the Peninsula Pedallers.
Our club was formed to encourage cycling on Eyre Peninsula in 2000 .
Our aim is to be an inclusive club which encourages cycling amongst the residents and visitors to the Eyre Peninsula South Australia.
We have several set rides every week.
See the rides list on this edge of the Blog. There is also a attached list of upcoming rides.
After these rides we do what all good cyclists do after a ride and return to one of our club's sponsors "Del Giornos" Cafe to have a coffee and chat.
We have a regular beginners ride on a Tuesday morning at 9.30am departing from the Arteyria Gallery. This is the perfect place for cycling beginners to start riding. There is lots of encouragement and help getting started and we only ride at the pace of the slowest rider.
This is a shorter ride, with the group usually only going to the National Park entrance. This is flexible though. We have no hesitation in shortening the ride to make it comfortable and enjoyable for new riders.
After this ride we return to Cruisers Cafe at the Port Lincoln Marina for a coffee and chat.
We are sometimes met by some of the original club members who can no longer ride.
The Peninsula Pedallers are an affiliated club of Bicycle SA and the Bicycle Institute of South Australia (BISA).
I hope this blog covers the regular activities of the club and I will post links and cycling items that catch my interest from my travels on the world wide web. If you have items that you would like included in this blog you can contact me at lockdotjeffathotmaildotcom (written in this form to defeat spambots)

Murray Darling Trip 2008
When man invented the bicycle he reached the peak of his attainments. Here was a machine of precision and balance for the convenience of man. And (unlike subsequent inventions for man’s convenience) the more he used it, the fitter his body became. Here, for once, was a product of man’s brain that was entirely beneficial to those who used it, and of no harm or irritation to others. Progress should have stopped when man invented the bicycle. — Elizabeth West
