Yesterday my kids enjoyed the Cycle Hunt, a free Brisbane City Council event at Rocks Riverside Park. Jan and Elaine from @Cycle Away lead the group of kids through some bike basics and helmet checks before setting off into the parklands. They learnt some new skills and it was a great activity to build their riding confidence. Concluding the event we were gifted with some very handy bike equipment, including a pump!
🚲
I am really passionate about these programs and promoting them widely so even more people can enjoy them!

When the Story Bridge was officially opened on Jul

When the Story Bridge was officially opened on July 6, 1940, an impressive crowd of 37,000 people gathered to witness the ribbon cutting ceremony. Today, Brisbane's iconic structure turns 80 and I thought we should celebrate its history!
.
The construction of the Story Bridge was one of three major Government projects that created years of employment for many men during the Great Depression.
.
The bridge was named after Brisbane’s longest serving and by accounts most selfless public servant – John Douglas Story who joined the public service at 16, oversaw the setting up of the department responsible for building the bridge and upon ‘retirement’ at 69 when the bridge opened commenced a vice chancellorship at the Uni of Qld which he held until his death at 91.
.
Apparently workers buried an Australian flag and a flag of the Southern Cross under one of the pillars in recognition of how historical the bridge would be when it was built.
.
At the time of opening in 1940, the Story Bridge was Australia’s second largest bridge (exceeded by the Sydney Harbour Bridge). It was the seventh largest bridge of it’s kind in the world.
.
.
BRIDGE FACTS:
✔️The Bridge is 1,072 metres long from the southern to northern anchor piers.
✔️The river span is 282 metres long.
✔️The summit is 74 metres to ground, similar in height to a 22-story building.

On Sunday, I spent the drizzly morning pulling out

On Sunday, I spent the drizzly morning pulling out weeds, cleaning bush tracks and spotting native birds with the Rikki Bailey Park Bushcare Group at 224 Englefield Road, Oxley.

This volunteer group has been operating for more than 10 years and are working to restore eucalypt woodland by removing exotic weeds and regenerating native lomandras and grasses (e.g. kangaroo grass). They have done a brilliant job on the 10 hectare bushland site, creating bush walks, adding nesting boxes and creating habitat zones.
It was great to see a passionate group who love restoring this beautiful habitat for native animals 🦘 🐨 🦅 and residents to enjoy. We all 💚 BNE!
The team leaders, Bronwyn, Ingrid and Vic, do an incredible job of motivating the team, while ensuring it is a warm and welcoming environment, that is family oriented too! After we finished, we enjoyed some morning tea and even roasted some marshmallows! 🐝 Working bees are held on the fourth Sunday of each month from 8-10am. They would love some more helpers so if you’re interested, please reach out to Bronwyn Rigby via their Facebook page - @Rikki Bailey Park Bushcare Group.
