Yarra Trails

Revisiting a classic ride that'll end in lunch at A1 Fairfield!

The route and the bikes:

• This is a 30km ride that can be tailored to you: You can choose to ride beginner singletrack lines or stay along the main paved sections (and we'll regroup along the way).
  • The main paved sections are rideable on just about any bike (e.g. a road bike with skinny tyres is fine)
  • The singletrack lines are best ridden on a cyclocross, gravel or mtb. There are no steep downhill bits - it's mostly flat or a gentle descent.
• We'll end at A1 Fairfield to have lunch together (optional, but we'd love you to join!). 
  • A1 is right by the Fairfield Station, or a 5min ride back to Alphington Station if you parked your car there.
• View and download the route here (subject to slight changes)

This ride is for:

• The singletrack-curious. Never ridden singletrack before? No problem! This is a great intro.
• Singletrack pros who just love friendly social rides that end with food
• BIPOC

The logistics:

• Meeting at 9:45am for a 10:00am roll out at Alphington Station platform 2 carpark.
• We aim to be at A1 by 12:30pm, but due to the nature of group rides, please plan to be flexible.
• This is a social, no-drop ride as always. That means we ride as a group and no one gets left behind.

Other things:

• This ride is weather dependent. If weather is bad, we will make a call by the preceding Friday to reschedule.
• Bring snacks to share and your own water.

Questions?

• This ride will be guided by Simon Lim and Yana Lim. If you have Qs, please ask us in the group chat or message us privately.
