I used to ride Springvale to South Melbourne for work. I tried catching the train to Richmond, it was the same time either way.

That's quite the distance. Is there at least decent cycling infrastructure to and from?

Nah, infrastructure was a bit shit. Three's the djerring trail now but it's shared, nicer than being hit by a car though.
