Story of my ride: Cycling in the city – Sydney to Parramatta, Father & Son (75km 95% on bike paths)

This video showcases some of the growing bike path network in Sydney. One Sunday morning, the traffic conditions and good weather combined, allowing my 14-year-old son and I to get out for a ride and explore our city.
Setting off in a familiar direction, we traced a new route using some of the new bike paths connecting the CBD with Parramatta. We eventually covered ±75km and enjoyed ourselves while discovering new things along the way.

This is the story of my ride with Xavier from 13 October 2024.
