I think i am in, since I didn't have a chance to join last kiama cruise due to overseas trip.

I'd suggest to have two meetings points. One might be in homebush or nearby to gather members from the west, the other one could be in north sydney or nearby for those live in city area or eastern sub and south incl wollonggong.
And we all meet somewhere like hawkesbury river, off the highway.
How about that?

I am happy to follow your lead (or alternatively everyone can follow me - I can't guarantee that we'll get where we are meant to get or actually get home......... .. . . :P )

yeah its called the space station ;)


G1: i don't think we'll be going up the Freeway all the way... i'm sure we can use the old pacific for a large portion of the trip. :)
yeah thats the only way ive been... but i was hoping you guys would find an alternative route...

so come on who else is going???!!!!

Teania I have been to Enterance a good few times so we can get there and back with a guarantee. I mainly know how to get there and back using the freeway but i know that are some nice trourist drives as well.

Pennant Hills Road, The best route up to the entrance would be, up the old pacific, to karriong, then maybe hit the bend into woy woy, and continue down brisbourne water drive (nice road accross the water) into gosford, and continue north,i cant remember the roads from there but my gf does she used to live up there, i can put together a map if you would like

Like most things Mikey, its only illegal if you get caught :lol:

Speaking of illegal, I mentioned to hubby the route we were looking at taking, the old Pacific Hwy, and he said not a great idea. He's a member of the Suzuki Hyabusa club (Suzuki 1300's for the uninitiated) Ahyhoo, they have given up going that way for their rides due to the fact that the cops and EPA just love hanging out there ready to catch motorcycles and cars on cruises. It seems to be a favourate route to travel for these types of clubs and dont the cops and EPA just know it :evil: :evil:

Anyway its up to you guys which way you want to go, I just thought I'd pass on the info...

I Live near the old pacific, andi hardly see cops there, never seen the epa, no offence but a lot of motcyclst say that cause they hate cars on their turf lol. Seriously I see lots of motocyles fanging it through their and they absolutly crack the sh*ts hwne there are cars on it, and there have been some pretty bad crashes.
The only time i seen police there is due to a smash up
