Melbourne once had a wonderful Yarra Trail winding all the way from the city to Heidelberg, the bushland home of the Heidelberg art school. It has since been cut by highways and freeways, but most of the sections are still there. Join us for a ride along the trail. Suitable for all Vespa and rider experience. There will be plenty of stops along the way so 'bring your Kodak'.
Meeting at Pertutti, Lygon St Carlton (opp Argyle Sq - next to Forza Italia) for coffee or breakfast from 9 am. MAP. Departing at 10 am.
We'll then travel through the city to meet the Yarra, the boatsheds, along the Yarra, stopping at Little Audrey still skipping away, the Yarra Boulevard, and old Heidelberg which still features an original stretch of trail. We'll stop at the Heide art gallery for a walk around the beautiful grounds beside the river, and then finish at our old haunt at Maling Road Canterbury. There will be many scenic stops along the way. Come along and enjoy old Melbourne while it lasts.

I was just making sure you guys knew what your were doing. David..I was happy with the way the ride went, you all did very well...:)
Hey David
Even Napoleon commanded from the rear.
Thanks for the ride today Julie and Greg. With a touch of spring in the air, a number of members must have been itching for a ride. Julie, you did a great job of leading your ride from the rear.
Hi Julie and Greg,
Late participant. Weather looks OK. See you for Breakfast coffee.
Any lady members joining me on this ride tomorrow....it's a nice easy ride :)
Tomorrow's ride is modified due to another bloody fun run road closure around the city and also the closure of the Swan st bridge for widening. We'll still meet in Carlton but will pick up the Yarra trail from the Punt Rd bridge.
New members, this is a nice easy ride, so please consider joining in for a group ride and enjoy being seen and smiled at...:)
