A bike ride starting in Altona

Sun, 26 May 2024
10:30 - 17:00

A bike ride beginning at a cafe close to Altona Station. The exact route will be chosen once we have a weather forecast.

GRADE | LENGTH | TYPE: The exact route and grade will be chosen by Tuesday 21st May, by which time we'll have a reasonable idea of what weather conditions to expect. It is likely to be a medium grade ride.  

ACTIVITY DESCRIPTION: We'll depart from The Forestta, 60 Pier Street, Altona at 10:25am. The most likely route option is a ride along the coastal trail, then the Capital City Trail, with lunch in North Carlton or Fitzroy North. If a strong northerly or easterly wind is expected though, we will probably head away from the CBD to keep the wind behind us as much as possible, in which case the ride will terminate at a Metro station so you can catch a train home.

BOOKING: By 5pm Saturday 25th May. To register click on Get Tickets.

MEETING TIME | LOCATION: 10:25am at The Forestta, 60 Pier Street, Altona. Pier Street is a pedestrian mall outside this cafe, and there will be ample tables either on the street or inside the cafe.
