Event Details

So last year, on 1 October 2018, I learned how to ride a bike... and for the month of October, I logged my km by doing laps around Parramatta Park, usually with a friend or two to make sure nothing serious happened :D

Anyone in the area are very welcome to join me for a ride around Parra Park to kick off GCC 2019!

We'll start from the clearing between CMRI and the Children's Hospital in Westmead... (x marks the spot on the map :)

YAAAAY WE DID IT!

Thank you Shaun, Antony, John, Malik and Alanna for joining my first group ride!

I know I'm super slow and excitable but you guys are so cool and so patient. Your presence and support is really appreciated.

Also, thank you for the riding advice AND for pushing me to do double the number of laps than I normally would. WOOT!

See you all at the next ride :D

Hi there, I take bike in the boot of my car and park in parramatta park as it is easier to park there. Not sure where meeting place is and what parking is like ?

Cheers

Hey John, I believe there's plenty of parking at the park from what i can remember. I think they're all 2 hour parking :)
