Note to riders:
Special start: Miller St South exit of Victoria Cross Metro station, North Sydney. (Please allow 5 minutes to exit the metro train to reach the meeting point. )
The special start requires a route modification that will include using Miller St to connect to the standard route. Return route on the day may return via Sutherland St Cremorne and St Leonards Park North Sydney to return to Miller St. This is slightly nicer way given busy shoppers on the day around Cammeray.
The coffee stop will be around the Manly Corso at your own choice to return to consume with the group. Suggest riders bring a lock.
Party after the ride ends (option):
North Sydney is holding its North Sydney festival from 11am next to the starting point. Refer to https://www.northsydney.nsw.gov.au/NSFestival For more information.
