Brisbane Commuting from a long lapsed member

That's awesome info thanks Maxxxie.

I actually live near the Kedron Brook Path (Wooloowin) and hadn't even considered that. My other thought was the back way through Albion which I've seen on the BCC website, but haven't tried yet.

Cheers

If you're headed to the city the Kedron Brook takes you very indirectly...kinda traverses around the city. From Wooloowin you can hop down Dickson St and follow it all the way along the railway. It turns into Bridge St then Mawarra St and keep following it under the underpass and to the end, veering right, then you can pop between houses onto lutwyche rd. You can then hop straight down Lutwyche rd (I probably wouldn't want to be doing this in heavy traffic), and turn right after the hospital...there is a bike path that runs along the golf course and runs behind the Grammar schools in Spring Hill, popping you our in Roma St Parklands in the CBD. Sorry I don't have a GPS file of this...but heres the map anyway:

It's a better way than going Sandgate Rd, Breakfast creek rd, where there's always crap on the road and no shoulder. Maybe have a dry run super early or in a low-traffic time to see how you go!
