Cycling for some is a sport, for the PB Tours team itâs a way of life! Australia is a big country and the team have certainly ridden many roads of most states, Queensland, NSW, Victoria, and ACT.
In 2005 they hit the roads of South Australia for the first-time, with a planned 1 week visit at the Australian Road Championships and eventually stayed for 5 weeks!
There can be no greater recommendation than this experience, South Australia offers the very best bike riding in Australia.
Okay the podium result at the Aussie titles needed celebrating and South Australia certainly has plenty of opportunity for fun in the sun.
