Adelaide’s north has numerous properties available that are relatively affordable, and have a comfortable standard of living.

Beautiful day for a Little Para Trail ride

Paralowie, Suburbs, Videos No Responses »
Mar 082010

With autumn starting to set in, today felt like a great day to dust off the old mountain bike and to go for a nice long ride up the Little Para Trails. Starting in my home suburb of Paralowie, I ventured to the western edge to get on the trail at Port Wakefield Road. The fresh breeze and a few spots of rain made the ride all the more pleasant – nothing like the smell of wet eucalyptus. There was even a bit of water in the river after the rain we’ve had over the last few days.

I’ve recently purchased a Flip Ultra digital video camera, and I also got myself a cheap bicycle mount on ebay so a ride on the trail would be a great chance to see how well it performs before taking the bike into the hills. Unfortunately, it performed terribly – the camera was good but the mount didn’t support it very well, and after about 20 minutes, the whole thing fell apart! A Flip Mino might have been better as it is a bit smaller and lighter. The video footage goes as far as the golf course near the northern edge of Paralowie, but I continued cycling to the Old Spot Hotel on Main North Road because it was so pleasant.

Here’s some of the video. If you can get past the shaking from the lousy mount, you’ll see that the Para ride is beautiful, especially in this fresh weather. Enjoy!
