Sydney: Nice Town, But Where Are All The Bikes?

Posted

I am pleased to say that the OTSG has returned safely from assignment in Australia. Today will be the final report on ten-speeds down under.

We spent our final four days in Sydney. Sydney was great experience overall, but lacked a bit in the 10-speed department–especially when compared to Melbourne. We spent the majority of our time in the downtown and tourist area, so there could be a better scene out in the suburbs. Luckily, I did find a couple of nice rides to feature–here they are.

This womens Cyclops Monaco was parked outside our hotel daily.

I found this well weathered Europa 10-speed on our way to Bondi Beach. I had seen a bike almost identical to this in Melbourne, but I didn’t have a camera with me. I’m curious what the owner of this masterpiece had to do to get his/her bike into this condition.
