Time: 7:23 pm
Finish: 11:00 pm
Meeting place: Epping Railway Station
Alex, founder of bikefun is in town so we are riding together down the Darebin trail and over the new bridge into Willsmere Park, from there back to Clifton Hill where trains run back to the City, or some people might ride back into town.
BTW the route from Willsmere Park to Clifton Hill runs over the Pipe Bridge in Yarra Bend Park then through the Park to cross Merri Creek near the confluence with the Yarra, so it’s very scenic.
If you want to bring a tent, there is a nice spot for some guerilla camping on the way. Dog friendly too.
Meet at Flinders Street Railway Station for the 6:34 train to South Morang, last carriage, get off at Epping. If you run late phone Nik on 0412703483.

Meeting place: Flemington Racecourse
Get on your bike and ride the sights of Melbourne to fight multiple sclerosis on Sunday 15 April.
Whether you are a beginner, a regular rider or a lycra lover – the MS Melbourne Cycle is for you!
It’s the perfect day out with friends and family to enjoy on your bike checking out the sights of Melbourne while making a difference to the lives of people living with multiple sclerosis.
Get a unique perspective on the Melbourne skyline as you ride over the West Gate Bridge in the 30km or 50km course. Start and finish at the iconic Flemington Racecourse, cycle along the Maribyrnong River, through Williamstown, Port Melbourne and the Docklands. An off-road 6km and 3km course is a great ride for all ages and abilities with plenty of entertainment at Flemington Racecourse to keep your friends and family entertained while you ride.
Multiple sclerosis is an invisible disease which does not yet have a cure, and with over 23,000 Aussies living with multiple sclerosis the time is now to fight MS.
Don’t want to ride but still want to help out? Why not donate to a rider or join our amazing team of volunteers.
