The way points of this bicycle route:
Get over Western Hwy on the ped bridge, then hop onto the footpath up to Burke St
Left at Burke St
Right at Cranwell St
Turn Left, descend to the river. Plenty of gravel here - wasn't much fun on slick tyres with my camera in my back pocket!
Stay close to the golf course fence, there's an "unofficial" trail which is more solid.
Cross the cool pipe-line bridge.
Turn right - surface is much better now: fine hard pack gravel.
This steep bit is pretty hard on slick tyres - you need a good run up to make it.
Steep ascent starts here, thankfully we're back onto concrete.
Top of the hill
Now the really fun part - down the other side!
Cross the bridge that appears around here - path is better on the other side.
End of the river path, head back up to Footscray rd
Right at Victoria St
Left at Barkly
Right at Gordon St
Left at Essex st
Right at Ashley St - perhaps onto the footpath for a short section.
Left at Hampden St
Right at Melon St
Left at Churchill Ave - we get a bike lane here
Right at Duke St
Left at Hertford Rd
And were back where we started
