The Sir Hubert Opperman cycling sculpture sits on the side of the Dandenong Creek Trail near the edge of Marie Wallace Bayswater Park. It was created to honour the legendary Australian endurance cyclist and politician, Sir Hubert "Oppy" Opperman, who famously overcame early mechanical sabotage to win 928 Bol d'Or 24-hour classic in Paris on a standard commuter bike.
