The Tour Down Under fills sports news;
Clad in Lycra, scenic views
As peddle-pushers pit their skills
Up Adelaide’s amazing hills.
Slight breezes cool – it’s hot outdoors
At Mount Lofty, cyclists pause
One biker “Eddy Merckx” displays:
A touch of Belgium in heat haze!
Meanwhile, amazing artworks stare
On Brighton’s sandy thoroughfare:
Bold dolphin “Snowflake” made me start;
Two yellow blooms – surrealist art?
One feature though, amused me most
Called “feathered cyclists” at this coast:
Gull, Puffin and a Penguin ride
Streamlined, flat out, side by side!

Snowflake the Dolphin - crafted out of scrap metal by Axel Klem
"Sunshine bloom"- crafted by Chris Murphy
Made of steel and cardboard by Tom Buckland, these wacky and whimsical feathered cyclists share humour, ecology, and the joy of cycling at Brighton, South Australia.
