Hi Guys, recently bought a new bike to get back out there after a 6 year hiatus. I settled on a 250 for the simplicity and budget riding. I live in the upper Blue Mountains NSW.
I have had a few overnight adventures since november and am loving it.
Enjoying the site!
Cheers Steve

Yes it is good for the head out there. If you are going on the Bridle Track there is a boulder on the road at the bluff so is closed to traffic but bikes can get past:) but i have to say it was scary enough when it was one lane.
Have fun, just started raining here so pack the wet weather gear.

Welcome to the site DRool.

Bender it’s raining and foggy at Sunny Corner and the tar is very slippery. Ride safe and enjoy yourself mate. We just got back from a quick loop and the hard pack clay is diabolical. The Pub at Hill End is a great overnight spot too.

decided to wuss it, bucketing down here, got to Penrith and thought that the dirt from sofala to hill end would be a bit slippery.
better to be safe than sorry, will plan again to go in a fortnight
