This will be our second twilight ride of the summer. The start location will be Arkoonah Park (behind the Berwick Showgrounds) and the start time will be 5 pm SHARP. It is essential that we get underway time so that we can get to dinner on time. The ride itself will be around 40km and we will be stopping for dinner at The Main Cafe in Berwick at 7.30 pm. Any non riding partners would also be welcome to join with at 7.30 pm.

After dinner, we only have a short ride from Berwick to Beaconsfield to get back to the cars. Lights would be advisable for this part of the ride.

March 4, 2021 – EXTRA SPECIAL - MYSTERY RIDE - starts at Bentleigh Reserve at 9.00 am
This is a very special early "Mystery Ride" that will take you into some fascinating parts of Melbourne that we have never explored before. Much of the ride is along a beautiful bike path that has remained a well-kept secret for too long. The start point is Bentleigh Reserve in Higgins Rd, Bentleigh. There is plenty of parking (and toilets) available. Because of the special nature of the ride, we will be starting earlier than usual at 9.00 am. We have even tested the location for morning tea and lunch, so you won't be disappointed. (Note the change of plans from the original Warby Trail Breakfast Ride)
March 8, 2021 – Special Labour Day Ride - Start at Yarra Flats Car Park at 10 am
David and Carol will be leading a special ride, starting at Yarra Flats car park in Heidelberg at 10 am. They have planned an interesting ride, that will take us on some paths for the first time. They are confident that our riders will have a great day. (There is NO FTG RIDE today)
