I can see where it gets to Kokoda st, but not after that..... Do you ride along side (or on the side of) the Centenary and get off at Jijaws st??

cross over sumners rd anyway, then continue along the bike path.
under the centenary bridge (watch out for trolls) and then over the centenary bridge, or have a brain fart like i did and enjoy all that seventeen mile rocks has to offer, which is bugger all.

I think the safest way would be to Darra station up to sumners road accross bridge on footpath (righthand side) and bike path from there.
Saves changing trains too....
Sorry for jacking your thread Shaun too...

I do this loop to the city for mid week training and has some good rolling stretches ....
Very safe and not many riders use it for some reason and good quality bike path ..... Enjoy

I rang Translink to enquire about buses, however the advised that I could ride the bus with my bicycle, however it would go under the bus.
Hmmmm... I think i will wait until next weekend, new plan is to ride to Rosewood, I have an Uncle there that I can visit. It will be 43km in length, (round trip) so will be a nice ride.
Cheers
Syd.

I live in Forest Lake and commute to town 3 days a week that way. If you want I'm happy to show you the way one day. From the Richlands train station its about a 23km ride.
