Ride in Reverse!

Have you checked out Reverse Garbage? It amazes me that some people still haven't heard of the ultimate craft destination for Sydneysiders! I have decorated bikes and share houses from the treasures found within. It's like a magical mystery tour bike ride. This is because Reverse Garbage receive different stuff each week - off cuts from various factories and donations. You never know what you might find, hence the mystery!



Where bikes go to get re-bicycled...



There is a book cave, a record cave and a costume cave as well as sculptures from local artists...



Now don't forget to visit The Bower which is right across the car park. Here you will find old furniture, typewriters and more bike treasures...



Come prepared and bring your own bags, find your own treasure or at least something you can make a treasure out of. Just add imagination!

No its not your neighbourly creepy dude, but Brendan our new friend! After discovering a mutual love of bikes at a recent party we have new people in our bike gang. The lovely Lucy (who's bike is arriving soon), Brendan (with his trusty sidekick with wheels) and Georgia (who we are working on to grow wheels). Todays bike ride was an educational experience for our young friend Brendan who attends Whitehouse. To show him the way to his educational facility we headed to Reverse Garbage for a shopping trip!

We found treasures, stuff and things. Truly! Jai also practised her best 5yr old impersonation!

There is only one thing on our mind once we left Reverse Garbage and that was ICE
CREAM.. !! This might be because I yelled out that I wanted some several times while shopping, but I prefer to think it was a befitting suggestion made by a respectable individual on a hot day after a bike ride.

Anyway I got my way! And then Jai got hers and we went a-Funkis-Clog-a-shopping! With a detour to Hyde Park fountain of course. Take a close look at the following photos because according to Brendan "Everybody is getting married today"!

Hmm.. Jai bought shoes..! We then wanted hot chips as they were all we could smell on the way home.
We headed over Prymont Bridge, riding our treasures home to horde. More adventures soon.. sigh.
