Where do you love to ride a bike?

My absolute fave is not in Sydney, it’s the track that runs along the beach between Huskisson and Vincentia at Jervis Bay – the views!

What about you?

    Wow, I didn’t know there were so many bike tracks in Sydney! I was so pleased to see you had Balmoral Beach on the list – whether there is a bike path or not, it is definitely one of our favorite places in Sydney

      Yes, Balmoral is a great place. Often tricky to get parking at weekends but usually easy during the week. What I love is that there are so many diverse areas there, swimming, snorkelling, beach… and good cafes too. Winner
