The Greenway 2025 - First take

🤫 I rode the $57m secret before the ribbon was cut... Officially, the fences don't come down on Sydney's new Greenway until tomorrow, Sunday the 14th. There's gonna be a ribbon cutting at Johnson Park, speeches, probably a sausage sizzle... the works. But I couldn't wait 20 years plus one more day. So, I may have... 'borrowed' the track a little early. And guys? It is fantastic. We’re talking 6 kilometers of pure, car-free bliss from the Cooks River all the way to Iron Cove. I just rode through a tunnel under Parramatta Road—yes, under Parramatta Road—and get this: the new tunnel at Constitution Road? It's literally designed to be 'microbat friendly.' I didn't see any in bats, but I did see some of the smoothest tarmac in the Inner West. So, while everyone else is waiting for the politicians to cut the ribbon tomorrow morning... come take a sneaky first look with me right now.
