LOL. Bring on the Banging Stick admin :P
Anyways, I made this post here yesterday, but I didnt work :x There are some good trails at the YouYangs, near Lara and Little River, Bot the riding areas are a fari hike from the train stations though...Good Riding though, Especialy at the Stockyards. (get off at Little River)
The Western Plantaition is a good area for beginners, it's not so hilly with mostly easy singletrack, with a few small technical setions. Best getting off at Lara if your going there, but like I said theres a few road miles involved which ever route you take.
Also note that Melbourne - Geelong - Melbourne trains aren't runnig between the 04/01 till about mid Feb, which sucks I know, but during summer the Stockyards is a very hot dustbowl anyways.
The Dandynongs (sp) have some pretty good riding, dont ask me where though, but quiet a few stations up there have trails around them.
Hope I helped some. PM me if you want more "directions" to get to the YouYangs, could even meet you's up there sometime :wink:

for trails that are fairly easy skill wise and access wise the trails around ivanhoe and the eastern freeway track have got to be the go. if u want come on wednesday night at 6.30pm, ivanhoe scout hall and tag along with the fatties club ride. there are always a fast and slow group and even sometimes a medium group.
probably perfect trails for what u want, flat and not to techy.
cya out there.

Grab yourself a copy of "Off Road Cycling Adventures", it has heaps of rides accessible by train. I bought it a few days ago so I haven't had time to do any of the rides but there's heaps in there.
