I trying to find information on Ariel bikes made in Footscray Victoria. I own a
bike that came into my life in the mid 60's, my first two wheeler. I
rediscovered it in my mothers garage when she died in 2005. Unfortunately she is
in a very bad condition. I am in contact with Jeremy Mortimore who has an
English Ariel bike website. However, we can only get limited info about the
Australian version. We are 99.99% sure the Aussie version is home grown. A
possible offshoot of A.G. Healings foray into bikes. My bike has one intact
decal that states: "Ariel Cycles 225 Barkly St. Footscray"
If anyone has info or ideas where to get info from, pls let me know
I will post some pictures if anyone is interested.
