Altona_Coastal

Join us on a City ride from Footscray along Bay Trail West to Williamstown and then through Williamstown wetlands, Jawbone reserve and Altona coastal reserve to Altona beach.
This is a beautiful ride of about 40km on flat shared sealed paths (except for about 400m from the station and 100m at Altona).

Iterary:

  • take the VLine train that leaves South Geelong at 9:10 to arrive in Footscray at 10:10
  • join Bay Trail West and ride 8km to Williamstown
  • Stop for coffee at Tick Tok cafe around 11am
  • Ride to Altona beach 12 km
  • Lunch at Forestta cafe at 12:30
  • Return along the same path with optional drink/ice cream stop in Williamstown
  • Aim to return on the train at either 3:18, 3:38 or 3:58 trains

**The ride leader will meet the group at Footscray station. When you get to the top of the escalator, turn left to the Bunbury Street exit. Bike spaces will be tight so some tight packing will be required. Sharon will be joining at North Shore.**
