15.01.2022 2020 has had a lot of ups and downs. Now more than ever, the social distance between us means it's so important to check in with your mates, friends, family, and riding buddies.

03.01.2022 Recent COVID-19 restriction level changes mean your ride plans might need to be altered. If you live in Melbourne or Mitchell Shire, you can only exercise or undertake sporting activities outside with one other person or household members. You must be able to keep 1.5 metres distance between yourself and others. Cyclists may face fines if they are considered exercising too far away from home.... Driving to an adjacent suburb to ride with your children is not allowed. Riding to the Dandenongs from Bayside suburbs or beyond the boundaries of Melbourne Metropolitan and Mitchell Shire would not align to Government directions. You cannot leave or enter restricted metropolitan Melbourne areas or the Mitchell Shire for physical activity. The Premier has specifically said: Q) How far away from my house can I ride my bike? A) You should show common sense in satisfying your exercise requirements, and go the minimum time and minimum distance that achieve this in your circumstances. For more information, please see https://www.dhhs.vic.gov.au/sport-and-exercise-metropolitan
