  2. Some big bumps tonight on Stage 11 of Giro. We enjoyed the pink train following the peloton along the valley. We sometimes cycle beside the Upfield train, but that’s not pink.
    Now for #FRATL 12.54am Anna @Sophoife

  3. We checked out around the new Balam Balam Place Arts precinct in Brunswick built by Merri-bek Council.

    It features a huge mural - ‘Always’ - by Gamilaroi artist Riko Rennie.

    There is a public open day on April 5.

  9. “Say Hi if you walk or cycle past us at Galada Tamboore at Ned Kelly Bridge today. We don’t bite. We are doing the recreational count for Bicycle Network 9am-12pm at this location. Cyclists, walkers, dog walkers, stroller walkers, scooters, e-bikes, kangaroos. We have our four eyes assisting Dad doing the count.” - Juliet and Indiana Jones 🐶🐶

  10. The joy of mulberries … at Rani’s Garden on the #UpfieldBikePath

    Dad made a stop to graze on mulberries on our way home from Coburg to Fawkner
    Happy #Halloween to everyone 🐶🐶👻

  11. #upfieldBikePath at Coburg at night… shadows Dancing. The cornucopia of smells of Peemails from the dog park, then fried chicken from KFC near Coburg Station.

    Nothing like cycling at night after going to a #climateJustice banner painting …🐶🐶

  12. Why do so many people not go cycling? Because of stupid people like this who park in the bike lane on Dawson Street, Brunswick.

    There is a safety risk for cyclists going over the bike lane separator and into the traffic lane here. - Juliet and Indiana Jones 🐶🐶

  13. Look who we saw on our afternoon ride today. The Reservoir kangaroo mob. Okay, Stage 12 #FRATL of 1.31am please @Sophoife

    There are about a dozen kangaroos in two remnant natural grassland blocks in #Reservoir surrounded by houses. There is even a watch for kangaroos sign on the road bisecting the two blocks. This is suburban Melbourne.

  14. Long day in the bike basket for us cycling from Fawkner to Seaford with a peemail stop for lunch at Mordialloc. Over 80km cycling. For the #TDFF2024 #Fratl is pure guess tonight of 11.42pm @Sophoife #Couchpeloton

  16. It’s nearing the end of Waring Wombat Season (April-July) here on the Wurundjeri lands of the Kulin Nation in #Naarm

    “Cool, rainy days follow misty mornings. The time of highest rainfall and lowest temperatures.

    “Waring (wombats) emerge to bask and graze in the sunshine.

    “Bulen-bulen (Superb Lyrebird) males perform their courtship displays.

    “Hearts of Kombadik (Soft Tree-ferns) are the major food when no fruits are available.

    “Days are short and nights are long.

    “The constellation of Sagittarius rises in the southeast after sunset, indicating the mid-point of cold weather.

  17. Stage 18 hilly day today. #FRATL estimate is 1.19am tonight, Anna @Sophoife .
    With all the recent rain #UpfieldBikePath has water over it in a few places here in Fawkner. But to compensate the frog symphony comes out after the rain and persists until it dries out.

  18. A short tour to a cafe for a latte for dad this arvo, avoided some rain, then riding home in sunshine on the #UpfieldBikepath. We’ve had dinner, watched #SBSCycling, closed our eyes and done our #FRATL calculations for stage 2 of 1.15am @Sophoife

  19. Congestion on the Craigieburn Bypass heading out of Melbourne/Naarm

    "Geez, the north bound lanes on the #craigieburnbypass is chockers this evening. This is what happens when you allow development of new residential suburbs on the northern periphery of Melbourne without extending the electric train service. The #upfieldline is waiting to be extended from Upfield to Craiguieburn and Wallan. All those people at risk of Vampires ... we kid you not."

  20. Night Ride home! But we didn’t see any rabbits crossing the path. (Dad says they often cross the path at night) The night time summer temperature was just right

  21. We are hiding among the sweet peas, trying to blend in on the #Upfieldbikepath. Much easier to do than those Matted Flax Lillies we posted about earlier.

  22. It’s impossible to hide behind these endangered Matted Flax Lillies, Dad. Although good that LXRP have planted lots of them beside the #UpfieldBikePath under Coburg Skyrail. We even saw a bee, we hope it was a blue banded bee engaging in buzz pollination.

  23. Loquats on the #UpfieldBikePath . The Upfield Urban Forest is also a food forest. Dad stopped and ate some mulberries going south, then stopped and picked some Loquats while going north today. Figs are ripening too.

  24. The post-apocalyptic giant mural at Brunswick Civic Square. With a dead No 19 tram, and bicycle on its side, the wreck of a car. Broken windows in the buildings with vegetation growing out of them. And a big male kangaroo heading down #SydneyRoad to the Town Hall building.
    We wonder if this big buck kangaroo is from the #MerribekMob recolonising #Brunswick?

    Sadly no people in the mural. Where did you all go? Is this the civilisational collapse from burning greenhouse gases and the #ClimateCrisis and using plastics? Wake up humans. Without you, companion animals like us #chihuahuas won't survive either. It is Past time to live within planetary boundaries, circular economy and all that.

  25. Today we are supporting provision of accessible tram stops on Sydney Road before Brunswick SkyRail construction starts.
    These really nice people turned up to do a banner and placard workshop in the Square opposite Brunswick Town Hall. We decided to do a selfie in support.🐶 🐶

    Launch of Transport Equity week starts 1pm Sunday 17 September, meet Wilson Ave/Sydney Road, Brunswick.

  26. We’d like to say a thank you and RESPECT to both drivers (one from each direction) who stopped at the raised crossing of the #UpfieldBikepath at O’Hea street at 5.30pm today for us on our bike. It isn’t a formal Wombat Crossing (but maybe it should be) .

    Can you see us against this panorama #Coburg #zerocarbon #climate #mural ?

  27. Cars, trucks and buses queueing across the pedestrian/cycling lights on Bell street at Coburg station scare us!!! But also the cars that run this red light only to go 20 metres and have to stop behind traffic at the next lights.!! So much disregard for vulnerable road users.

  28. “Just Chillin’ with the #ReservoirMob at #NgarriDjarrang grasslands with Dad. So awesome to see these kangaroos living in the ‘burbs“

    The volcanic plains grasslands is a critically endangered ecosystem, reduced to less than 1% of the area it once covered.

  29. “Busy day today. First we attended a climate protest about #SafeguardOurClimate not polluters outside Labor MP Peter Khalil’s office and handed his staff the IPCC climate report, then we had coffee time with Dad’s friends at Wild Timor Coffee Shop, before cycling to Merri Food Hub in Fawkner to pick up some fresh produce. Then another cafe for Dad to have lunch. That was our day. “

  30. “After 2 years the new trees planted near Moreland Station beside #UpfieldBikePath providing some canopy shade. But they have another 100+ years to catch up with habitat biodiversity provided by the Sugargums chopped down by LXRP as part of level crossing removal.” #JulietandJones

  31. “As little Velo-ciraptors with @MerribekBUG we checked out Acustico Cafe with Dad.

    Perfect spot on the #UpfieldBikePath and Union Street in #Brunswick. Staff were friendly, so we gave them a lick not a bite. We might come back here! “

    We also surfed the #UpfieldWave following the train here. Cyclists need to have priority when they upgrade the Bike path as part of Level Crossing Removal.

  32. “Always nice meeting other Brompton bike riders on the #UpfieldBikePath under Coburg Skyrail.

    “Fellow #MyBrompton riders Elsie and Stanley follow our adventures online.

    “We were cruisin’ today as Dad’s Brompton Folding bike was serviced yesterday.”

  33. “At last the Merlynston station bikepath is open again from the Shorts Rd crossing and Ararat Ave. But the tree plantings only go a short way. Where are the trees providing shade past the station, Dad? Don’t the landscapers understand #UrbanHeat and need for canopy shade given the #ClimateCrisis? No trees to Boundary Road. Sheeesh. What a dog’s breakfast in failing #ClimateAdaptation.”

  34. “After Sunday cafe-sitting Dad cycled us up to Northern Memorial Park where we watched the #MerribekMob of #EasternGreyKangaroos grazing. We held our bark! There were joeys too!
    #UpfieldLine train passed.
    These are the Roos that inspired Dad to ask questions in 2018 about a Council #Biodiversity Plan. The Council Nature Plan was subsequently developed and approved in 2020. Thanks Dad for making a difference on the #BiodiversityCrisis

  35. “Dad took us to the dog park today where we had a good runaround. We thought he deserved an iced coffee at #CoburgMall after being such a great chauffeur. Coburg Night Market was less busy, but most of the bicycle parking hoops under Coburg Station were being used. Build #cycling infrastructure and people will cycle. We even saw a terrier on the back of a bike when going home”

  36. “Hurry Dad, we can hear a train coming on the #Upfieldline. We Don’t want to miss the #UpfieldWave.

    Dad, now is not the time to stop to take photographs. The train is almost here. Boom gates are down. It is go on the #UpfieldBikePath

  37. Hey, this is smooth riding, Dad, in the Dawson street Brunswick protected bike lane. Why don’t we have more of these in #Merribek?”

    “On the other hand, We had to wait with other traffic and trams while a Ute parked on #SydneyRoad longest linear car park in the Southern Hemisphere. Protected cycle lanes would make a lot of sense for cycle safety and traffic movement”

  38. “It looks like a tree, sort off, but doesn’t smell like a tree. Smells like embedded carbon of #plastics. And what’s with all the multicoloured balls? We couldn’t reach any of them. And they are too big for our small mouths. We can’t see any birds in this tree. It doesn’t appear to be very good for urban biodiversity either.”
