    Make sure to cycle from the city to port melbourne alongside the tram tracks (route 109) and then you can continue along the coast either direction. One of my favourite cycles, usually pretty empty.

    I really love my Kev. The Curve ethos is truly amazing! After meeting a few of the Curve crew on their UK tour earlier this year it is clear that they live the passion and culture that is seen in all of their social media content. I am happy to buy into and support a fantastic brand and everything it stands for. Hopefully the brands presence in the industry can grow in the UK and around the world. With you on board I look forward to watching more Curve RUclips adventures! All the best on your new journey!

    Interesting to hear an outsiders' take on our bike infrastructure. We complain about it a lot, while many of us have nothing to compare it to. You know my neighbours kid used to wear a superhero costume when he rode his bike as well. His was a Superman one with the cape and one day while riding up and down the driveway the cape got caught in the freewheel gear which then started pulling his head backwards until he could no longer look forwards or continue pedalling. The bike had training wheels on it so it didn't fall over when he stopped moving, instead he was left hanging on to the handlebars for dear life while balancing on the seat unsure what to do, so he started calling for help. Because the costumes' cape had caused the neckline to become very tight across his throat he could barely let out much more than a squeak so he also started ringing the bikes bell. Sitting in my lounge room watching TV, I initially ignored the bell but as it became more urgent I also started hearing his tiny cry for help. After nearly ten minutes curiosity got the better of me, and so I went outside to see what was going on. I tried so hard not to laugh while I began to untangle him, but the look of terror on his face as he stared up into the sky, frozen in place on this bike was all too much, and so I was in tears by the time he was freed from his predicament. A few years later I caught him being mean to his sister who is just a year older than him, so I reminded him of that incident to knock him down a peg or two. The sister immediately said, "Omg is that what happen to your Superman cape?". Apparently he had gone home after the incident and not said a word to anyone about what happened and refused to talk about why the cape was in the kitchen bin.

    Nice mate, honestly your hardest choice is deciding which rides to do. There honestly are bunch rides every single day of the week. Some head south and are flat and fast, others head north east for the hills. Depending on what you're after, im happy to send you some links for rides/routes around town. FYI they all beat riding back in the UK ;)

      Why? Always ranked the highest of any Australian city in the "most livable city" world rankings. As a cyclist, the weather is great for riding, plenty of safe routes to ride on. Of course I'm biased, I'm just surprised and interested as to why Melbourne is considered so poorly by you.

I normally go on my own on a Saturday morning, but I rarely ride on my own.

      @OllieJonesMod I think its because its non descript, a bike bag is clearly for a bike, a box could be many things. Francis Cade thinks it's because they are easier to move and stack than odd shaped bike bags too. Either way never had a bike damaged or lost in a box, in my bag I've had both
