Bicycle Network Victoria: Where to Ride

Bicycle Network Victoria's Taster Maps

The Taster Maps have been produced to give new (and not so new) bike riders a "taste" of different types of riding. The maps cover bike path riding, mountain biking and road riding and give you all the information you need to get riding.  Information includes tips on how to get to the rides, etiquette and how to find out more about that type of riding.  There is also an opportunity to go in the draw to win fantastic bikes. Contact Bicycle Network Victoria or go into your local bike shop to pick up the maps that interest you. Which one is it?
