Here they are! Two great days riding. Do the whole lot or just what you fancy.
Saturday will start from The Rockabilly Café and Sunday from The Venue (because the Rockabilly doesn't open until 10am on a Sunday). Both routes finish at the Oxford Hotel, the location for the Friday night meet and greet. There's no set start time or location, so feel free to breakfast at your digs or wherever. Watching people come in with a beer at the end is always good though :-)
The routes are now final!

Day One:
Combines the Hill End, Sofala Esses, Capertee Valley and Jenolan Caves Road into a superb day's ride. All the dirt has now been sealed, but there's some rough sections. You will need to carry fuel on this day. This is a pretty challenging days ride but there's options to cut it short.

Day Two:
Begins with a trip to the mountain circuit, than it's through Barry (couldn't resist taking the Bazzas to Barry), a ride up Mount Canobolas and a loop out from Orange around gold-rush towns...plenty of servos on this route so you shouldn't need to carry fuel (I would though). This day is mainly sweeping roads through rolling hills and old towns, so more leisurely than day one. The run from Orange back to Bathurst on back roads through the hills is fantastic and a great end to the day.
