🌞 Eat, Drink, Dip & Coast — Summer Social Ride to Point Ormond - 22km return
Melbourne Convention & Exhibition Centre, Exhibition Door 5, 1 Convention Centre Place, South Wharf VIC 3006, Melbourne, AU🌞 Eat, Drink, Dip & Coast — Summer Social Ride along the beach to Point Ormond - 22km Return
A breezy, cheeky, sun‑kissed roll along Melbourne’s waterfront
Ready to flirt with summer? We’re taking our wheels, our wit, and our warm‑weather charm on a coastal cruise from the Skyline Ferris Wheel at South Wharf all the way to Point Ormond — with beach dips, café temptations, and plenty of banter stops to keep things loose (especially my muscles, which will absolutely need it).
🚲 Meet & Greet (and maybe a cheeky pre‑ride coffee)
10:15 a.m. — Arrive early at the Skyline Ferris Wheel, right next to the Love Café by the Exhibition Centre. We'll leave by 10.30 a.m.
Grab a snack, sip something energising, and warm up your social muscles.
10:30 a.m. — We roll out. Smooth, slow, and social.
🌊 The Route: Waterfront flirtation
We’ll glide along the cycleway to Beacon Cove, then follow the coastline past Port Melbourne, hugging the bay all the way to St Kilda and finally Point Ormond.
It’s about 11 km each way — a breezy 22 km return — and absolutely not a race. Think: leisurely cruising, sunshine, sea breeze, and the occasional “wait, look at that view” pause.
🩱 Swim Optional… but highly encouraged if it’s hot
If the day turns steamy, we’re making a splash.
Bring towel + bathers if you’re feeling brave, beachy, or both.
☕ Lunch & Swim Stop — Group Choice
We’ll hit the café‑rich stretch around St Kilda for our mystery lunch decision point.
The group decides where we land — café, swim, or both.
Add an extra hour if we settle in for food or a dip.
🕒 Timing
Expect around 3 hours of rolling and chatting, plus optional extra time for lunch/swim indulgence
💬 Vibe
Light. Flirty. Inclusive.
A summer ride with a wink — perfect for loosening up, meeting new people, and letting the coastline do its magic.

1000 Steps (Kokoda Walk) and Bellview Terrace Circuit - Social Walk - 10km.
1000 Steps (Kokoda Track Memorial Walk), Cnr Burwood Hwy and Mt Dandenong Tourist Road, Melbourne, AU🌿 Spandex fitness Social Stroll: 1000 Steps + Bellview Terrace
Ready to swap the treadmill for towering gums and skyline views? Join us for a 10km exploratory adventure through the iconic 1000 Steps Kokoda Memorial Walk and the sweeping heights of Bellview Terrace.
This isn’t a bootcamp—it’s a social saunter. Think more talkies than walkies: a relaxed pace, plenty of banter, and photo stops to soak in the Melbourne cityscape and coastal horizon.
🚉 Meeting Options
- Public Transport Crew: Gather at Upper Ferntree Gully Station exit (Belgrave line).at 11.45 a.m. From there, we’ll head together to the trackhead, about a 20 minute (1.4km) walk. A train from Melbourne is expected there around 11.45 am.
- Car Crew: Meet us at the start of the walk, just in from the car park at Ferntree Gully Picnic Ground.
** Meet us at the track at 12.15 p.m for a 12.30pm start** Can't guarantee we will be there after 12.30, so please be on time.
Car park is located at the start of the walk
🧴 Essentials to Bring
- Sunscreen (shade is patchy, and the Aussie sun is fierce!)
- Water (hydration = happiness)
- Comfortable clothes and shoes (spandex optional, but encouraged for maximum vibe)
Snacks to keep your energy levels up. Electrolytes and sweets if it's hot to keep your salts and sugars good
☕ The Grand Finale
We’ll finish back at the base, winding down at one of the cafes near the trailhead—perfect for a coffee, smoothie, or cheeky slice of cake after our shared adventure.
✨ Expect laughter, light sweat, and stunning views. This is less about conquering the climb and more about connecting, exploring, and enjoying the journey together.
More info1000 Steps Kokoda Walk information
Note: This will be my first trip to the 1000 steps, hence exploratory, although I've walked in many places throughout Australia, New Zealand and Victoria, I've not done this iconic walk before. I've heard it gets busy, and full of the spandex bunch with a time goal, but things should quiet down when we loop around one tree hill and head down via the terrace.21 attendees
🍕 Eat, Drink, Dance… and Actually Eat This Time: Eat & Walk Adventure
Royal Botanic Gardens, 100 Birdwood Avenue, Melbourne, AU🍕 Eat, Drink, Dance… and Actually Eat This Time: Choose‑Your‑Own Eat & Walk Evening 🍕
Look, I’ve realised something slightly embarrassing: the Eat activity in the Eat Drink Dance Melbourne title has been treated like the quiet kid in the group project. Neglected. Overlooked. Underfed.
Time to make amends — with carbs, twilight, and a little light cardio.
We'll head down to Topolino Pizza in St.Kilda on Fitzroy St. They have a big menu if you'd prefer something different and prefer a drink as well.
Location:Topolino Pizza
Because it’s a bit too sweethearty to plonk down at dinner with total strangers straight away, we’re warming things up with a breezy 5km ice‑breaker walk. Think of it as foreplay for pizza.
⏰ Start time: 6.30pm
⏳ Arrival time: 6.15pm sharp — I’m not waiting for stragglers.
⏱ If you’re late: Meet us at Topolinos around 7.45pm and pretend you were there the whole time.
