Roll Your Eyes: Melbourne Now by Bike
If you have been hiding under a rock, you may not know that the National Gallery of Victoria is holding a GIGANTIC exhibition of EVERYTHING called Melbourne Now.
Well, not quite EVERYTHING, but a lot. We are very pleased to be a part of it thanks to our friends at The Office For Good Design, who have programmed 3 Pushbike Excursions under the name Roll Your Eyes: Melbourne NOW by Bike.
Over three Saturdays in January, we will be leading a FREE BICYCLE TOUR tour hosted by a Melbourne creative, and discovering hidden parts of Melbourne through their eyes and on our bikes.
Here’s the rundown:
