Summer Rides!

For the next few rides, the full ride details will be available to everyone here on the website and e-mailed to you if you've registered. Usually only members get these e-mails.

We encourage you to come along on a ride and bring your friends, especially on our two midsummer rides: along the Yarra Trail to Heide Museum of Modern Art and on the dirts tracks out at Lysterfield.

Count bike riders and raise money for Bent Kranks!

Bicycle Victoria is keen to hear from available people who would like to 'count bike riders', for the project known as Super Tuesday.   All counters will receive a free t-shirt for their efforts, and can also nominate a Bicycle Victoria listed cycling club (please choose Bent Kranks) to receive $50!!

For just 2 hours, you would be counting from one location only, between 7am and 9am on Tuesday 2nd March 2010.

Latte Loop

This weekend we'll do the Capital City Trail the only way Bent Kranks knows how...with coffee and cake.  Travelling anticlockwise from Royal Park station we'll head down the Moonee Ponds Creek towards Docklands and Southbank and then along the Sandridge Trail to our first coffee stop at Port Melbourne.  When we're all done here we'll ride back into Southbank and pick up the Yarra River Trail bound for the Abbotsford convent for our second ‘pick me up’ for the day and lunch.  The Merri Creek Trail will lead us through North Fitzroy and Carlton, back to our starting point at Royal Park station.

About the club
 Caffè latte - a common sight on Bent Kranks rides

We are a bike club for the gay and lesbian community of Melbourne and open to all. Whether you are a once a year rider or a weekend warrior who likes to hit the trails and tracks in or around Melbourne we have a ride for you.

Our rides are mostly away from busy roads and are either on bike paths, rail-trails or dirt tracks in the hills around town.

Check out our current ride calendar, read about some recent rides, have a look at some more photos, find out more about becoming a member, or visit our  forum.

If any of this appeals to you contact us and we will soon have you riding your bike in places that perhaps you never knew existed.

See you on your bike soon!
