Self-Guided Rides and Ride Maps

End of Page

For those who would like to relive a previous ride or test a new one and offer some feedback. These rides compliment those found in Cycling Around Sydney, by Bruce Ashley and others guide books.

You will also find here some of the maps etc for rides Massbug, and BikeSydney, have organised over recent years. (Just in case my computer crashes, yet again!)

Participation in Massbug and BikeSydney rides is free and open to all, with minimum requirements such as roadworthy bicycle, approved helmet, etc., Check the Calendar page for more rides and details.

Bicycle NSW also has a calendar of all rides in NSW at http://www.pushon.com.au/Admin/listBUGs.asp

• Sustainable Cities - Newtown 2007.pdf Barely outside the Golden Crescent(TM)(R) Newtown and environs lead the way, (cough), in showcasing Australia's mastery of sustainable technology at all levels of building design, ownership and habituation. Sorry, habitation, sorry, hebetation. Sorry, rehabituation... damn... Photos scroll to album. Thanks Robert! Video

BIKESYDNEY RIDES

2007

• CBD 2007.pdf A saunter through the CBD, just right for a spectacular sunset/twilight ride.

• Summer Solstice 07.pdf Summer Solstice thumbnail map and suggested timing... neither massbug or bikesydney endorses trespassing on Eastlakes Golf Course either to view the newly rehabilitated Mill Ponds or the regenerated wetlands. These squiggles on the map are only a desire line, until such time as the Southern Sydney Regional Organisation of Council's preferred Centennial Park to Botany Wetlands (Mill Ponds) trail is completed.

• Zetland Ride 2007.pdf The stars in the night sky form the Milky Way... the moon is made of green cheese... the Southern Cross is not all that angry... so come for a ride. What is it about dairy products and far flung nuclear reactions.

• Cafe 2007.pdf Originally devised by Matt for Saturday morning rides - when the cafes would be open - this ride can be done at any time of day with a friend or three. The map might need some updating tho as the speed at which some cafes open and close is blindingly fast.

• Syd Sculpt 2007 REVISED.pdf March 2007 - The Notes to the Sydney Sculpture Ride, revised so they can be printed on one page. Print using best resolution to get detail on the map.
