Turning left at the junction of Drs Point and Mungabareena Roads we ride to the bike trail on the Riverina Highway, follow the trail for a short distance before turning right into Island Road and crossing the bridge into Victoria. We'll ride to the end of the sealed road and then retrace our steps back to Riverina Highway and continue on to Elizabeth Mitchell Drive. Crossing over Elizabeth Mitchell Drive we'll ride to Corry's Road (or to Fallon Street depending on conditions) and back on the Albury Thurgoona trail. We'll detour via Schubach Street onto Willowbank Road and finish our ride in South Albury. Depending on conditions, coffee will either be at Ebden and Olive or BBB.
