Have to work

, it's always good riding on a week day as there is generally a lot less traffic and cops. Enjoy

Gs650 · 11-29-2012, 02:09 AM

I also have Saturday the 8th available to ride. I was thinking about posting this date to see if i can get a group ride going of local guys.

Not sure if I can make next Saturday, but would be good to go for a ride with some local adv guys

I always go for rides out lithgow way. Know the area pretty well now. Probly head out for a ride this Sunday if anyone wanted to meet up. I have a Yamaha tenere. I live at Hornsby too

Another place which I haven't rode but taken the 4wd through a couple of times would be from wombeyan caves to Janolan caves. Could do it in a day but I think it's best enjoyed over a weekend.

Found out today I have to Work on Saturday the 8th so it we will have to be 15th.

I'm in the same boat. Moonan will see me out for this year. Someone with some local knowledge should propose a date for a ride in Jan so we can pencil it in.

RuskinRowe · 12-01-2012, 02:07 PM

Hi,

I'm in the same boat, Had a R1100GS for a while now but only done a few gravel roads because I no longer have riding buddy. I'm keen for weekend rides around Blue Mountains and Hunter Area. I know a few 4x4 Tracks around the Hunter/Putty Rd area that should be ok for bikes.

Also in the next few month my Mrs will get her own 650GS and "Apparently" keen Mixed road riding.

We're over near Manly on the beaches.

PM or Facebook me (bschwarze@ hotmail . com) next ride. Probably early new year is looking good.

-Bryan.

I might well be up for the 15th.
Are you thinking just about a day ride or going for an overnight?

When it comes to day stuff, Wombeyan Caves is certainly do-able. It's about an 80-100klm run down the freeway to go in via Mittagong.
There is also a pretty cruisey run up through Lower Portland along Wheelbarrow Ridge road out onto The Putty and up to Colo Heights road out to Bilpin.
There also the run up The Bells Line and in at The Zigzag and out along The Blackfellows Hand Trail.

All are easy day runs for which you could turn Wombeyan Caves and The Blackfellows out to Newes into overnighters.

I am also in Shire territory in Kirrawee.

cheers

The idea of an overnighter sounds good. Can definitely make Saturday though

Gs650 · 12-04-2012, 02:27 AM
