Each year a group of us have got on our bikes are completed an evening tour of the Christmas Light of the inner west. In past years we have started at Dulwich Hill and moved west along the Cooks River Cycleway to Croydon Park and then ended up at Second St, Ashbury. This year -we headed east instead in a loop that started at Dulwich Hill – then to Marrickville and Tempe, and then back to Dulwich Hill.
We met at Dulwich Hill shops and had dinner, then got on our bikes.
