 :blu13 Hi people, I will be joining Taffmak at McDonalds on Windsor rd and hope to meet some members over a good pie and coffee later. see you all there,  Don from Bomaderry, just having a coffee in the garden with Kangaroo valley spread out in the distance, the sun is out, the wind has gone, I just cant make my mind up whether to take the ST or the Can Am Spyder, it must be rough doing the daily grind and living in the city, when you could be riding! never mind I hope when the weather breaks to arrange a ride down this way and I will light up the Pizza oven and get some ice in, see you on the 17th Don
always look on the bright side of life, de dum, de dum, de dum, de dum, and ride ride ride.

Hey Dave, that's the same description of me after hoeing through a couple of them!  :eat Definitely only one at a time though! o:)

Anyone coming from the West (Orange), I'll be riding the scenic route through Tarana via O'Connell and Mutton Falls Rd and Lake Lyell, leaving time negotiable, but around 9 to 9:30 from Orange.

Hello People,

My back and neck are doing much better. Did a short 1hr run on the weekend without traffic to see how I'd go and aside from a slightly tired neck, everything was fine. So I intend to do a leisurely ride leaving at 9.30am or perhaps earlier (time is flexible, but I will be taking it easy as I've been off the bike for 9 weeks now) from Illawong doing the following;
1. Fairford Rd
2 M5
3. Bringelly Rd
4. The Northern Road
5. Richmond
6. Bells Line of Road
7. Darling Causeway at Bell
8. Great Western Hwy at Mount Victoria

Then a short run thorough Blackheath and down the mountain finding the Pie Shop on my left. In case you're wondering, I didn't want to do any U'ie's on the highway, it's just undignified for my baby to backtrack on her journey.

https://goo.gl/maps/Y1R4D

Perhaps I could meet some of you on the way, Dave?, Johnny?

A few of us (3 so far) are going that way, leaving Kellyville Ridge at 10:00am - we should be able to hook up along the way somewhere in Richmond if that's any good.

Hi Ruben, sorry to hear you have not been well, wondered where  you had been these past weeks, will be going roughly the same way as you next sunday from Bangor, but not up the tollway, possible might see you at Bringelli and Northern Roads, if not,  at the venue.

Hi Norm, where you thinking of going down healthcote road or further south to come up up through Camden? If through Heathcote road, would you like to meet at the Menai 7eleven at 9am and I can organise the meet up times with the others at different locations

Ruben 7/11 at Menai at 9 is ok,  how about Heathcote rd, Liverpool, back road to Bringelli, to Wallacia, Penrith and then on to Bells Line of Road as you suggested, I am open to any suggestions BUT  it looks like pretty bad weather on Sunday, (but they are often wrong) if bad we could short cut it and just head up the mountains from Penrith..I will fit in to any suggestions.

Hello Guys, In consultation with my local buddy, we'll leave Menai at 9am. We'll take the scenic route via Heathcote Road then as per the steps below;
1. for those travelling north along Old Northern Road, we will be turning right from Bringelly and stopping approx 200 meters up from the lights at about 9.40. The plan is to leave the Northern road/Bringelly area by 9.45am
2. If the weather is bad then onto step 4  :'(
3. If the weather is good then onto step 5  :runyay
4. Take Old Northern Road to the highway then straight up the mountain
5. Continue Old Northern Road to Wallacia then turn into Mulgoa Road then all the way to Richmond
6. Cross the Hawkesbury river and stop at the BP service station just after bridge by around 10.45.
7. Depart BP at north Richmond at 10.50am travelling up the bells line of road to Bilpin, the a left at the Darling Causeway to enter the highway at Mt Victoria and a leisurely ride to meet at the pie shop by around 12.15 (hopefully no fog on the mountain otherwise the timings will be thrown out.

Who reserved the table? and the parking spots for the Bewt STeeds to frolic together?

Like any good plan, it's as good as the moment you fire up the engine, then cosmic events take over.  :grin

I'' the Bluetooth on and I can be reached on 0402202972

Looking forward to meeting up Paul. I'll do an update on Sunday morning as the weather forecast is not looking too pretty. Just in case its raining and we decide to head up the highway rather than Bells Line of Road.

I can pay online, I normally do but I doubt the copper or camera will consider that my bike is registered when the RTA won't process my rego renewal until Monday . . . So playing it safe and not riding . . . Could drive I suppose . . .  :think1
