Well we are off to the big smoke! Can someone point me in the direction of a
couple of really good LBS near Footscray? We wont be driving as we are country bumpkins so it will be bus/train (which in itself is a challenge for us to catch as we dont have them up here lol) We are thinking we might get organised for our next epic by actually seeing the goods before purchase. A lot of LBS in Cairns have catalogue only and you have to pay before you see. Thanks Kathy. |

I don't know the Footscray bike shops at all, comng from the other side of the city. But if it's touring gear you're looking for, in Melbourne you really can't go past Abbotsford Cycles (not in Abbotsford, but right near Richmond Railway Station). Peter Moore and his staff are really helpful and stock all sorts of touring items. You could also try St Kilda Cycles, Fitzroy Cycles and Brunswick Street Cycles. All of them are in the iner suburbs and fairly easily accessible either by bike or public transport. -- Cheers Peter ~~~ ~ _@ ~~ ~ _- \, ~~ (*)/ (*) |

Abbotsford cycles is fantastic but on the other side of the CBD. |
