Just to let you know that I got swooped 3 times by a magpie today when I was heading North just before the freeway bridge nr Greenwood Station. The little bugger scored 3 direct hits on my helmet before I eventually outpaced it!

Cheers,

Gary

Yikes. I've just started riding to work one day a week, is this on the cycle paths or on the road?

I join the bike path into the city from Hepburn Ave on the western side. Haven't had any problems along any of the paths between Greenwood and Nedlands so far?

I was on the path when it happened. If you're heading South after crossing the bridge at Greenwood Station (to the Western Side), then it's about 500m after this as you head to the little park (plenty of trees which I assume are full of birds nests!)

Cheers,

Gary
