FREO TODAY

Freo Today. 4 October 2024. Seems it’s Bike Month or Bike Week in many places at the moment. Bike October around Freo right now. And last Sunday in Lyon, France it was Bike Sunday. The brass band turned out to see off the riders – young and older – from Place Bellecourt in the middle of town across the bridges over the rivers Saone and Rhone. Perhaps Freo could try something similar. Say, from The Esplanade over the railway track to Fishing Boat Harbour and along the bike path to South Beach, or even in reverse? Report 3 from our Editor-at-large’s 2024 ‘Activate Freo’ Study Tour of Italy and France.
