About this event

Join the Friday Cyclists on the AFL Grand Final public holiday for a ride from Altona to Carlton, with lunch at the Great Northern Hotel in Carlton.

GRADE | LENGTH | TYPE: Moderate 25 km point-to-point cycling with public transport connections. We will be cycling mostly on off-road, sealed cycling paths, with no significant hills.

ACTIVITY DESCRIPTION:
A small group of Nomads cycle virtually every Friday of the year on trails all around metropolitan Melbourne, and sometimes in Regional Victoria. Take advantage of the AFL Grand Final public holiday to join us on this relatively easy ride. We'll meet at Altona Station and have a coffee nearby. We'll then cycle along the foreshore, take a shortcut to Newport, then rejoin the foreshore trail, passing under the Westgate Bridge and connecting to the Capital City Trail, which we then follow past the zoo in Royal Park for lunch at the Great Northern Hotel, 644 Rathdowne St, Carlton. After lunch you can catch a train from Royal Park or Rushall Station, or cycle home via one of the many trails connecting with the Capital City Trail.

See Cycling Tips for a few suggestions about things worth considering before you next hop on your bike.

BOOKING: By Wednesday 21st September. Click on Get Tickets to register.
