It is a magnificent ride along the Yarra river nearly all of the way in. There is almost no road riding required along the trip, This keeps are nice and clear of cars.
We also have a train line running from Eltham to Melbourne. This allows us to catch the train part ways on the the days where our legs are failing ;-)
Above is a GPS trace of the ride from Melbourne city to home in Eltham. As the ride follows the Yarra river most of the way, it is relatively flat for most of the journey. The steep rise at the end is a hill climb near home.
A high level Google view of the ride. Eltham/home is top right. Melbourne city is bottom left.
Another view from Google. This is looking from the city North-East back to Eltham
