    Hi,
    Someone told me a while ago that they rode from Kariong just off the F3 freeway just outta Sydney and rode all the way to Stockton beach near Newcastle, rode the dunes in the arvo, camped the night then rode back in a total of just under 2 days. A pretty high speed trail ride through loamy dirt and the best ride to date was the report.
    I was wondering if anyone knew of this trail ride and is it possible???
    Looked on google earth but cant work out the best route

    Hi Mark

    I PM’ed you else where and said someone here could help you and I am sure we can.
    From Kariong you would have to go through Somersby falls, out past the sand quarry, though the gas line service trail to Peats Ridge road, cross it follow the gas service road up to iron bark road, the road to Bloodtree road and down into Dubbo Gully, up to the back of Koala Rd and bitumen to the letter A, through the Watagans and come out just up from the Oak Milk bar at Freemans, cross the road up through the back of the Freemans and under the hi-way across to the back of west wallsend which gets you the Wallsend, from there I would have to do some thinking but I can link all that up for you, pending track closures.

    I have at one stage or another done all those trails many a time

    Welcome Mark

    Thanks TB

    I again looked on google earth and sort of mapped out a way to go with your directions, although I only made it halfway… very confusing! If you manage to map it out let us know and if we end up doing the ride one day will post a ride on here to see who wants to come.
    Thanks again!
