Sunday was a nice day to head out on the bike for a ride. My route
was almost all off road - and on cycleways. I rode along the Cooks
River Cycleway from Dulwich Hill, then up the Cup and saucer Creek
Cycleway (part of which was closed - still!) - and then along roads
to the M5 Cycleway (through Linear Park). I followed this to Salt
Pan Creek and then along a cycleway to Bankstown. Then along roads
for about 5km to the cycleway along the Georges River - Chipping
Norton area to join up with the Fairfield - Orphan Creek Cycleway to
Prospect Reservoir. Then I continued along the aqueduct cycelay to
Guildford and then along the Cycleway to Parramatta. A km or two of
street cycyling - to join the Parramatta Valley Cycleway to
Silverwater Bridge. I crossed the river at the bridge and then went
through Blaxland Riverside Park to Newington Armoury and through
Homebush Bay to Homebush and picke up the Cooks River Cycleway again
which took me all the way home. A map of the ride can be found here.
The whole ride was about 98 km.
I took a camera and grabbed a few shots on the way.
