This is the normal morning ER route into the city. The start is at Gordon at 6;45 and the finish is approx. 7:30 at the Bitter & Twisted café just off the harbour bridge. The route was originally known as the Captain's route or, in ER mythology, as the Captain's sacred songline.

On a Friday it was referred to as the Marshmallow route when the HM&WOTN braved the wilds of the inner west on the Rhodes Roubaix. The name One True Path was coined by Half in response to the constant jibes about mallow riders as he asserted that this route was the only one to follow, whatever day of the week. The name is even more relevant in these days of frequest Flutters and Fluffers.
