You're coming the furthest so 8 am if that suits. The wooden bridge is now partly plastic.

see you on the next one hopefully

as Hergest posted above - the wooden bridge is now plastic, whether or not it is fantastic is debatable. better get the suncreen out for an 8am start

See you all in the morning. The forecast looks lovely. 25 degrees, bit of cloud after maybe some early fog which should mean a refreshing start to the day.

That was an enjoyable and very relaxing ride and a really nice surprise to see Claire at the wooden/plastic bridge. My word I do enjoy those Bourke Street Bakery pork and fennel sausage rolls, I reckon a bloke could easily get fat on them.

Hi all,

Probably going to do the M7 cycleway starting at Parra Park this Saturday 24th December.

Potential to turn it into a retro ride?

Retro's

That time of Year again.

Sydney Classic Bike Show
Sat 25th March 2017 at the Canterbury Velodrome (Tempe). Starts at 11am and finishes at 3pm.

Is there interest in a ride from SOPA (or the Park on the other side of Paramatta Rd per last year) to the Velodrome?

Sounds good to me. Frank Zions Reserve is probably easier to park near, but I'm easy

I'm in. Can bring the new toy which is slower than the two wheeler but a lot of fun. Especially on downhill corners....
