Trendy Bike Shop and Team Presentations

Today was supposed to be a vlog day about my training day but because of the dislocation in my shoulder I can't train. I'm in Adelaide though at this years Tour Down Under which means I can still talk about cycling. Today was a good day because it launched the TDU and all the teams were presented. I was able to get heaps of photos with lots of riders and some of the presentation.
Lotto Soudal- My favourite team
One of the coolest things I think I saw while out today was Jens Voigt's hour record bike which was on display.

Looking down on the top tube on his bike
At the teams presentation I met loads of big names which can be seen in all the photos below.
Mark Renshaw

Heinrich Haussler- New Australian Champion

Michael Rogers

Richie Porte

Marcel Kittel

Cadel Evans
Besides just looking at pro cyclists I found a super trendy little bike shop which sells fixed gear bikes (which I probably shouldn't be looking at because they're the reason I can't ride). Now it's called Treadly Bike Shop and can be found at 10/5 Ebenezer Place and its right behind Rundle Street in the centre of Adelaide.
Looking into the shop.
The bike shop can be found here.
Despite the pain and disappointment of not being able to ride, I'm still having quite a good time in Adelaide and everyday I'm becoming more and more eager to be out on the bike. With loads more cycling and racing to come, there will be loads more blogs and I know I've said it lots but there will be some vlogs as well.
