Thanks for joining our Meetup group and welcome to Bike Leichhardt.

We run three or four Sunday rides a month, and also a few week-day rides. One ride each month is an Easy Ride of about 20-30 km, suitable for beginners or those who just want a relaxing pace on mostly bike paths or quiet roads and no big hills. The other rides are mostly medium-paced (say 20 -25 km/h on the flat), up to about 40 to 60 km, with a few hills and usually some traffic to contend with, but we try to avoid major roads. We also do Challenger rides, which range from 60-100 km, with some significant hills, and/or a generally faster pace. If in doubt, or any questions, contact the ride leader, or use the message boards on Meetup or the Event.

We advise new riders to start off with our shorter rides and get used to our pace and style. We generally wait-up for slower riders so don’t worry about being too slow- particularly on Easy and Medium Rides.

Rides usually start around 08:30 AM. Meeting places vary, see the Event for location. Arrive earlier and grab a coffee and a chat before we depart. For some rides we might take a train or ferry to get to or back from a ride. Bikes are carried free on suburban and Inter City trains and ferries.

We also run weekend/multi day tours each year to country NSW and further afield in Australia and NZ.
