Jacob's Creek is a well-known export wine. Getting About Cycling is popular in Adelaide and is encouraged by the local Councils who have established an excellent network of cycle paths, some being separate from the road system. In the winery districts of Clare Valley and McLaren Vale, disused railway lines have been converted to cycle tracks. City cycle path Transport SA produce a free pack of eight cycle maps covering the Greater Adelaide Region, available from their office in the city. The cheapest way is to buy one at an Op-Shop or garage sale.
Every suburb has one or more shops.
It is amazing what treasures can be found for a pittance. Old Books Adelaide is a great place to fossick for old books. I collect books on travel, fishing and cookery, the children's classics and detective novels of the 30's. Popular day tours are to the wine regions of Barossa Valley and McLaren Vale and to Kangaroo Island and the Murray River region. All the wineries offer free wine-tasting.
