Connex and V/Line could learn a thing, or several, from this smashing educational CTC video found via Tweed Cycling Club. Nice tips about taking bicycles on trains, cycling skills, group riding, socialising and the wonders of a jolly good day in the outdoors. Wizard!

Re: First clip....

Why don't they have the food carriage on the train to Lilydale for the Lilydale-Warburton bicycle tour? Hmmm they have a slightly different accents (see 4:10) too there (maybe bogan)... *ROFL*
