Scenic, relaxing ride with views and wine tasting. Had a fantastic day out. Great scenery, lovely riding, saw some wildlife and then enjoyed a scenic wine tasting lunch. Also found an ice cream at the orchard to finish the day.

Fantastic day, so much fun. We did the self-guided e-bike tour to Tapanappa winery and had the BEST day. Definitely more appropriate for intermediate riders rather than beginners, but a great way to explore the Adelaide Hills and enjoy stunning views from the summit of Mt Lofty. Thanks to Ian and team for looking after us.
Outstanding day tour on a bike with stunning views, amazing food and wines. Ian was outstanding, informative, encouraging, relaxed and fun. The bikes were excellent. The riding was perfect for a wine tour. The winery’s we visited were outstanding and very welcoming. This tour was a highlight of our trip to Adelaide. Thank you Ian for an amazing day. Brad and Linda.

🐣 Easter Hours at the Goat Shed🐣
Here’s when we’re open over the long weekend 👇
🚴♂️ Bike hire still available over the weekend (pre-booked only)🚴
🚨 Fuel Prices Have Forced Our Hand 🚨
With diesel now pushing $3.30/L, we’ve had to rethink how we run shuttles…
After exploring all options, we’re rolling out our new
Goat-Assist Shuttle System™ 🐐
A hybrid setup combining diesel and a trained goat team to help on climbs.
Early testing has revealed:
Strong uphill performance
Poor braking decisions
Easily distracted by vegetation
We’ll be trialling this system from this weekend.
