Just moved to Melbourne? Welcome to the neighbourhood! ☕🏙️

Moving to a new city can feel a bit overwhelming, but the best way to find your feet is on two wheels. We recently caught up with Storm and James, who moved to Melbourne and joined one of our social rides to explore their new local area.

For them, it was all about checking out the local culture, discovering the architecture and winding down with a proper Melbourne coffee.

Our short weekly rides are completely free, low pressure and designed to help you meet friendly locals while building your road confidence. You do not need fancy gear or a lot of experience to join the community.

We are so excited to see Neighbourly Ride featured as a recommended resource in a recent article for The Conversation. Written by Glen Fuller, Professor from the University of Canberra, the piece explores why so many people stop riding and what it actually takes to get back on the bike.

The research shows that the biggest barriers are not about motivation. It is often about stressful routes, feeling like you do not fit the "Lycra" image or just needing a bit of support to find your confidence again.

That is exactly why we started our rides. We focus on making cycling ordinary, social and inclusive. We help you find the quiet paths and provide that friendly community connection that the article mentions as a key to getting back on two wheels.

Come and experience a ride with us this Sunday:
📍 Carlton
📍 Brunswick
📍 Hampton
📍 Footscray

A big thank you to our Ride Leader Katy for spotting this and sharing it with the team!
