Route: Emma starting at her place and heading down to the river and along the Corso. Taking the dreaded goat track up to Gladstone Road then Highgate Hill and down to the CityCat stop where we met up. Then Dockside, Mowbray Park, Norman Creek Greenway, SE Freeway Bikeway south to near Tarragindi, up onto Ipswich Road, right onto School Road and over the Emma's gaff for coffee and eggs - thanks Chris and Emma!! Then I went home via Fairfield Rd and Cornwall Street avoiding aforementioned goat track. Here are a couple of maps:
This is the entire loop showing Emma's course via the Corso... (29.8km)
and a detail of the southern part of the ride, leaving the bikeway and heading towards Fairfield...
An excellent hill to sail down is Park Road heading towards Fairfield. I felt like I was flying! Looking at this map now, I realise we could have stayed on the bikeway a bit longer and hooked up with Cracknell St. straight from the bike path... but being a Sunday morning there wasn't a lot of traffic. Ekibin Rd was a slight uphill incline so it was a good workout!
