Werribee - Point Cook Coastal Park - City (55km, mostly paths)

A one-way medium pace ride from Werribee to town via Point Cook coastal park/beach. I expect the ride will finish early but you can exit to the station at Altona and others if time is short.

Forecast for Sun is 21°C with a medium chance of showers most likely during the morning. Expecting southerly tailwinds if the forecast is right.

The route is mostly on sealed paths and bike-lanes.
