Yes, it’s time for us at Escapegoat to expand, and look for alternative trips and tours we can offer in Adelaide. We have always strived to offer unique and totally different trips, and so are very pleased to announce our new environmentally friendly bike tours for Adelaide! Why not join us on one of our Adelaide Goat Tours!
Obviously the simple bike is one of the most environmentally friendly modes of transport there is. However, up until now the main complaint about our tours is that people needed to pedal on our trips, which could be hard work. So, we have now come up with an alternative option for our new tours- now you can just sit back and let the ‘Escapegoat’ do all the work, with our new goat-powered bikes!
Our custom-built ‘Goatbikes’ allow a rider to be propelled along at a relaxing 20kph, all powered by 1GP, or ‘goat-power’. Enjoy a leisurely relaxing ride along the River Torrens, past the zoo, and along to the old Gaol, all under the power of your very own goat chauffeur.
Inital trips will be powered by our first fully trained goat, Billy, who has just finished his vigorous training with the Scottish Mountain Bike Goats Association (SMBGA), and is fully qualified to lead mountain bikers around the world.
Until we have further fully trained goatguides, additional clients can instead choose to “Bring Your Own Dog” (BYOD package) to attatch to your own cycle. It is however a condition of the BYOD package that all dogs must attend a briefing and short training lap under the expert tuition of Billy, before they may take their owners for a first ride.
Tours cost $80 for a Goat-powered trip, or $60 if you “BYOD”
Whats included:-
Pick up in the Escapegoat Van

Please note, a height restriction does apply, and some dogs, such as Chihuahua’s may be too small to join the tour. If you have any questions feel free to contact Billy on 1800-goat or email at billy@escapegoat.com.au to discuss your suitability.
