Starting from Bella Vista metro station, this generally flat ride heads north past Kellyville metro station. It then explores the quiet streets, cycleways, parks and reserves of Blacktown LGA from the new suburbs of The Ponds & Colebee on to the more established areas. We follow Breakfast Creek cycleway through Maryong into Blacktown CBD and onto Seven Hills. From there we loop down to Prospect before returning via Girraween Creek cycleway to Toongabbie and back to Bella Vista.
There is a short, less than 200m, section of unsealed track through Timbertop Reserve in Prospect. If the gate at the end of the track is not open bikes will need to be lifted over it.
Coffee at either Two By Four cafe in new development of Fairwater where there are toilets.
Bailout options at Schofields, Blacktown, Seven Hills or Toongabbie train stations.
