The Bicycle Network E-Bike Expo at Brunswick Velodrome this year drew crowds of people keen on trying out a range of e-bikes.
The event featured colourful stands run by bike shops, council and local bike groups and a barbecue put on by Brunswick Cycling Club as well as bike parking.
Showcasing everything from cargo bikes big enough to carry children and dogs, to folding bikes, three-wheelers and standard commuter e-bikes, the event on 4 October gave people the opportunity to try riding an e-bike for free.
For many attendees, it was their first time riding an e-bike and an occasion for great excitement!

Bicycle Network CEO Alison McCormack said: "We were delighted to see so many people excited about e-bikes at this year's Bicycle Network E-Bike Expo.
"E-bikes are really booming at the moment and offer a fantastic alternative to car ownership. They're ideal for commuting, touring, errands or riding for fun, plus they're an excellent way to keep active even if you have limited mobility.
"Bicycle Network is proud to support the legal e-bike industry and would like to thank all those who exhibited, supported and showed up to try out an e-bike on a great day."
