Put you on a two-seated bike from the foothills of the Dandenong Ranges National Park. A 37km ride down to the Bay along parkland paths built alongside the watercourse. Passing through wetlands and farms, your host guides couples riding tandems to cosmopolitan Dandenong, where we stop in the Afghani quarter to refuel. No shared roads to risk, other than the 40kph shopping precinct.
We'll finish at the beach (Carrum station) on even days, but on odd days of the month we offer a loop alternative from Ringwood to the Yarra and back, which is 10km longer but costs less as lunch is on you. The start changes to 10am.
Other things to note
A water bottle. If you have SPD cleats for the stoker, I'll swap the pedals.

I'm a ski patroller and instructor in the winter, so hospitality doesn't end with warmer days. I love tandems for the togetherness, and couples can exercise equally while touring. Also a passionate supporters of an inclusive Australia, so see in Dandenong how refugees are advancing this brown country!
Have toured France's vélo routes and think ours more than equal - no constant stopping for unused crossroads here, since underpasses are built :)

Start 200m up Mt Dandenong, at Upwey station. Pass the 1000 Steps memorial to WW2 Kokoda battle, follow Corhanwarrabul Ck to Dandenong Ck. This skirts Chesterfield farm, passes Wyuna farm/zoo (yes, you can stop to feed the deer) and after a bite in Dandenong's cosmopolitan Afghan Bazaar onto Pattersons Lakes and Seaford wetlands. The odd days loop option starts at Ringwood station onto Mullum Mullum Ck and takes fully 4hrs+
Geoff was a great host - super friendly and informative. We rode through some beautiful areas and on some lovely paths that we really enjoyed. That being said, riding a tandem bike is not necessarily easy! It is definitely a lesson in trust and teamwork, which was challenging as well as rewarding. Overall we enjoyed trying something different and new together.

Geoff’s ride was great! My partner and I were on the tandem and Geoff led us on our 4 hour trip. Though we were both experienced cyclists, neither of us had tried a tandem before. It was definitely an unusual feel and took some getting used to, but we really enjoyed it! The route was beautiful through varied scenery, and Geoff was very personable and knowledgeable about the environment we passed through. We stopped for lunch in the Afghani neighborhood, so even that was unique for us. We’d definitely recommend it!

Fantastic experience to see these parts of Melbourne on bike. Host were very friendly and knowledgeable about the local areas. Tandem biking was fun!
Would highly recommend to tourists and other Melbourne-ites like me and my husband - we saw such beautiful areas on this ride that we didn't know existed in Melb :)
