Family Fun Ride: What a Great Day!

Posted on by 19 September 2013 - 4:19pm by IWC Rec Team

The Weather was perfect and those that came along enjoyed a leisurely ride all the way to Brighton Beach (and some ventured beyond). The ride itself took just over 2 hours including a rest stop for juice and fruit half way before heading back.

Thanks again to Bike Marrickville volunteers and our leader Natalie as well as our Road Safety Officer, Transport Planning team and Transport NSW for their support and involvement in celebrating Bike Week, 2013

See you in Autumn 2014 when we head west along the Cooks River!

 

Reclink Community Cup

Sydney’s second newest cross town rivalry heads into its second year with the Reclink Community Cup being staged at the picturesque Henson Park in Marrickville on Sunday August 25th.

The Reclink Community Cup is a family-friendly day that last year in Melbourne alone raised over $70,000 for charity, rising to $100,000 plus in 2013. With Sydney embracing a rapidly growing AFL culture and it’s very own top-flight intra-city rivalry, The Reclink Community Cup is becoming a buzz topic across the Harbour City.

Why I Play: Winning Entry #1

Posted on by 20 June 2013 - 11:30am by IWC Rec Team

"I like to Kayak and try to get out as regularly as I can. I find the exercise suits me as it is fun, quite aerobic, and puts my mind in a very relaxed state and peaceful place. I need to work out aerobically but my knees are in poor condition so running is not an option for me. Recently I have ventured onto the Cook's River and enjoyed working against the mild current and seeing the revitalization of this inner west waterway." - Darren, 1 May 2013
