City and country rides for November
There’s a good mix of urban and regional rides this month, along with the usual cruisy coffee rides and more energetic pub and café lunches.
Whitehall Street path closure
There will be a lengthy closure of the trail along Whitehall Street in Footscray and Yarraville as West Gate Tunnel works ramp up around the tunnel entry exit precinct during the next month.
Distracted pedestrians at increased risk
While bike riders are acutely aware of the risk that distracted drivers pose to a safe journey, less attention has been paid to whether distracted pedestrians are a risk to other road users and themselves.
Melton Station plans finalised
Works to build a new Melton Station and remove four level crossings along the line will deliver vital bike connections to the district.
Bus replacements on Sunbury line
Riders who usually take their bikes on the Sunbury train line should note the use of replacement buses in early November.

Following the opening of the bridge across the Moonee Ponds Creek between Strathmore and Oak Park further upgrades in the precinct will change access routes until the end of the year.
