36. Blue Mountains and Surrounds

When: Saturday after Ps Practice. 

Route: Sydney - Sydney Olympic Park - Richmond - Lithgow - Oberon - Edith - Jenolan - Katoomba - Penrith - Sydney (430km)

Road: If there is no traffic, Bell's Line Road is good fun. Watch out for the 15km/hr downhill hairpin turns along Jenolan Caves Road if you're coming from Edith. Nothing too sinister but don't ride the back brakes. I did just that and boiled my brake fluid which resulted in air in the system and a rear brake failure. I will be needing to adjust my front brakes to a more comfortable position so I can start to use it more effectively.


Scenery Along The Way:




Just for Fun:

With short legs and a bag on the pillion seat means having to walk over the bike to get on...
