This is a ride along the full length of the Parramatta River. We start at the Hills Showground Metro Station and use roads and cycleways to Quarry Creek. We follow Quarry Creek down to Toongabbie Creek and onwards crossing both creeks 10 times, the last time just upstream of the junction with Darling Mills Creek - the start of the Parramatta River. We then follow the Parramatta River along to Meadowbank crossing it 4 times, the last crossing taking us from Meadowbank to Rhodes. Next we track along the river before skirting around harbour bays and foreshores.
The ride then takes on a grand bridge theme in the last 10km crossing the Anzac Bridge, Pyrmont Bridge and the grand finale, the Sydney Harbour Bridge.
We return to Hills Showground via train and metro from North Sydney.
