About CycleSydney

CycleSydney is where I share my passion for cycling infrastructure, advocacy, and the best rides across our city. Whether you’re a daily commuter, a weekend explorer, or a supporter of better bike lanes, you’ve found your community.

This publication, along with the interactive CycleSydney maps, is the central home for all my ride guides, 3D flythroughs, and infrastructure reviews—including the annual Sydney Cycling Infrastructure Awards.

The Rules of the Road (Disclaimer)

By visiting this website and using my maps, you agree to the following:

  • Inspiration, Not an Agency: CycleSydney is an advocacy and inspiration site. While I pay close attention to the details of my rides, conditions change and errors can happen.

  • My Experience, Your Ride: Think of the provided maps and GPX files as a trail of digital breadcrumbs rather than strict turn-by-turn navigation instructions. They are casual guides that reflect my personal opinion and my specific experience at the time of the ride.

  • Ride With Common Sense: If you are using my maps, please use your own judgment on the day. If a path looks dangerous to you, walk it, take your time, or find a different way. Never ride while reading your phone or navigation device.

  • Independent & Transparent: I organize and pay for my own trips. If I ever cooperate with external parties or brands, I will mention it clearly in the article.

  • Limitation of Liability: Infrastructure, paths, and conditions change constantly. No rights can be derived from the content on this website. CycleSydney is not responsible for direct or indirect damage or injury resulting from the use of this information or referred websites.
