Follow the inner west railway line to have coffee in the inner city. Return through inner west suburbs close to the Parramatta River. The ride uses various commuter routes in its journey along the inner west railway corridor through to the inner city. On its return, the ride passes through commuter routes that are closer to the Parramatta River in its return to Meadowbank. Numerous boutique cafes are available along the route, which passes through cafe suburbs such as Newtown, Chippendale and Central Park, Glebe, Annandale and Leichardt. The ride leader may choose to restrict numbers to enable the exploration of boutique cafes, cafes which may only have a small capacity for coffee connoisseurs. Riders are encouraged to bring a secure lock for their bike. There are many convenient early exit points (train or light rail stations) available nearby the route. Additionally, riders can turn around at any point and retrace the route. If a rider leaves the ride, they should let the ride leader or sweep know BEFORE leaving the ride, ensuring the person acknowledges they were heard!
