Highlights

  • Redcliffe section: Scarborough Beach to the Ted Smout Memorial Bridge, past Settlement Cove Lagoon and Woody Point Jetty
  • The Ted Smout Bridge cycleway crosses Bramble Bay
  • Lota Creek mangrove boardwalk, and Eddie Santagiuliana Way between Cleveland and Thornlands

Before you go

  • Train stations along the route from Cleveland to Kippa-Ring let you ride one way and train back — first or last carriage, two bikes per carriage
  • There’s a gap of about 9 km between Wynnum and the Gateway Bridge on road shoulders and footpaths
  • Older sections have patchy signage, so carry a route file; watch for koala crossings
Charging and battery range. Gravel, hills and headwinds drain a battery faster than the spec sheet says. Plan your stops, carry your charger, and never leave a battery charging unattended — see battery safety.

Il tuo codice postale decide cosa puoi vedere. Le batterie sono solo ritiro di persona, quindi sono visibili solo agli acquirenti vicini al venditore, e alcuni articoli non sono visibili in tutti gli stati.
