Cycling the Capital City Trail

Sun, 25 Aug 2019
10:30 - 16:00

Enjoy a leisurely winter ride along the Capital City Trail around inner Melbourne.

GRADE | LENGTH | TYPE: A relatively easy 30 km cycling circuit with many early exit options if needed. 

ACTIVITY DESCRIPTION:
The plan is to start with a coffee at Beer Deluxe, Federation square. The best bike parking option is beside the river on Birrarung Marr (between Swanston Street and the MCG, and between the Federation Square Car Park and the river). The ride will be starting from the bike parking. From Federation Square we'll follow the Main Yarra Trail in an anticlockwise direction, with lunch probably at the Doutta Galla Hotel in Flemington. However, if we have significant rain or other delays, there are many other lunch possibilities such as Lentil as Anything at the Abbotsford Convent, The Great Northern Hotel on Rathdowne St or various cafes in Lygon St. After lunch we'll continue around the Capital City Trail through Docklands and back to the starting point, or whatever point you decide to exit. This is a fairly easy ride of around 30 km and there are many train exit options all along the way.

MEETING TIME | LOCATION: 10:30am in the beer garden of the Beer Deluxe Cafe, Federation Square.
