Tour Information: The posted coordinates are for a car
park handy to the start of the tour. The tour, including the return
to the start point, is approx 20kms in length and will take about 2
hours. As the cycle tracks/footpaths are designated for combined
use please give way to pedestrians. As cycles generally move in
relative silence please warn pedestrians when you are about to
overtake by either ringing a bell or advising them on which side of
them you will be overtaking.
Please take care at all road crossings. The
roads are often busy. It is safer to walk your cycles across
them.
