My main method of travel around Melbourne has been by bicycle for nearly 40 years. It still is. My main beef about that has always been that whenever I drive my car around Melbourne, I have a safe first-class trip on some wonderful roads, except for congestion & delays at certain times. Whenever I ride my bike on off-road paths I always enjoy a congestion and delay free trip, but it is often circuitous, has rough surfaces and is quite dangerous in places. Obstacles are carelessly placed in our way. I can only describe the state of the bike paths (shared paths) around Melbourne as third-class at best.
