Ride to Work Day - October
National Ride to Work Day, is an annual event to celebrate cycling hosted in Mid October every year. 
Across Australia, work places and community groups will host Ride to Work Day breakfasts to reward people who choose the healthy commute.
To support Ride to Work Day Moreland Council organises a breakfast in the Victoria Mall for people who ride to jobs in Coburg, or pass Coburg on their way to jobs elsewhere,
Breakfast at Victoria Mall, Coburg
If you work ride to work and can pass Victoria Mall, Coburg, you are welcome to join us. Our ride to work day breakfasts usually involve a delicious breakfast for around 100 cyclists, an a chance to enjoy a cup of coffee and a chat with fellow bike riders.
If your route to work doesn't run through Coburg, visit the Bicycle Network Victoria's Ride to Work Day website to find the community breakfast nearest to you. Local bike shops usually do something for the day so there's bound to be a chance for you to be a part of the fun.
Moreland TravelSmart Maps
Council staff will be giving away Moreland TravelSmart Maps (PDF 8Mb) and will be available to talk about upcoming rides, choosing the right bike, and riding safely.
Copies of the Moreland TravelSmart maps are also available from:
You can also email Council or phone on 9240 1111.
Look out for fun bike events
October usually means marvellous spring weather ideal for bike riding. Keep an eye on the Council event calendar for rides. For example, in 2010 and 2011 Council organised the MoreArt festival and turned the Upfield shared path into a sculpture garden. Local community groups organised interpretive rides to explain each of the works ending with a social catch up on a Sydney Road night spot. Its a great time for a ride and there is usually lots of opportunities to get involved.
