This video brings back so many good memories in 2022. I still reminisce about cycling around Melbourne and there was always someone to cycle with. Oh, they were the good old days. 😭😭😭😭

This inspires me to shave my legs, drink 5 cups of coffee, drop around to a pretentious bike shop and buy a $500 kit, take some photos of my bike against some street art, then go home for a snooze.. is Melb any good for cycling?

One from thee past: in 1971, I rode up to Sassafras, had a cuppa with a survivor from the Bridge on the River Kwai, and rode down the 1in20 - well before it had its name. What made it interesting was that my brakes failed quite quickly aqd I rode down the rest of the way, using my mate as a brake.A memorable ride. Lovely video

Everyone seems to be missing the point that Melbourne is the greatest due to its cycling culture and not necessarily the terrain. If I had to choose a city due its terrain it would be Wollongong. Glad the worlds are being held there in 2022.

I actually prefer it that way as you get a few kms under your belt before hitting the climbs and the rides tend to be 100-200km in length which is great for fitness and endurance

Melbourne may have a great bike culture but it's laughable to think that it has the best cycling in Aus. Come to Canberra. Excellent, well established urban paths and bike lanes. World class single track all over the city, some of the best at Bruce Ridge less than 2km from the CBD. Solid urban road climbs from easy (Mt Stromlo) to challenging (Black Mtn, Mt Ainslie). In Canberra you are never more than about 5km from the urban fringe. Quiet country roads both tar and gravel surround the city supplying amazing riding from your front door. The hills of Namadgi and The Brindabella Range give ample opportunities to climb proper hills. I could wax lyrical all day.

For me Melbourne is a better city for cycling than Amsterdam. Melbourne has clearer rules and regulations for cyclist, whereas in Amsterdam it can be a bit chaotic.

It’s a very different kind of cycling I think. Melbourne looks to be “enthusiast” cycling. In Amsterdam (Netherlands as a whole) bicycling is more commonly just about utility/primary mode of transport for everyone from kids to grandmas 👍

It seems that the criteria for the best cycling city is made up of pretentious factors e.g. cycling culture, bike shops, coffee, whether people shave their legs and wear $500 colourful kits, street art to photo your bike.. if you’re after the best and varied terrain and views, it’s definitely not Melbourne

@@ashleymalamute depends what you want in your rides.. the Netherlands is flat as a pancake. In Brisbane there are nice bay rides, river loop, mt cootha (only a couple kms from the cbd) and nice hilly rides on the outskirts. The psychotic bogans can be a downside though.. so Netherlands wins on that front.

Ben Cureton no issues with that is there? Adelaide’s got coffee as good as anywhere in Melbourne. Yes Melbourne probably has a nicer Crit seen, and also it’s cool riding around the city, but how do you guys find the tram tracks? Pretty nasty if you get your wheel stuck in one. That’s never really been an issue in Adelaide, also where are the climbs in melbourne? I’m not talking about out of melboune, I’m talking “in” Melbourne. Adelaide’s got plenty. Whatever you want, all 5k away from the centre of the city. Want to do a flat 100k loop along the bay like you can in Melbourne? No problem. Head out along to port Adelaide and outer harbour. There’s a reason why mike Turter hosts the tour down under over here. Also who’s the world time trial champ at the moment? Pretty sure he’s from Adelaide.
