Well I mentioned the next ride in the thread about yesterday's ride but thought this would be a more appropriate place. This one (as usual) will need a bit of input. My take on things at the moment:

. The next ride would/should be a Saturday (per rotation policy)
. First weekend of October (two months) is the long weekend (double demerit)
. Long weekend is the middle weekend of school holidays so weekends each side are also within school holiday period
. Weekend following school holidays is MotoGP weekend
. So how about before the school holidays? This means that it won't be as long before the next big group ride

How does Saturday 18th September sound?

Sounds great to me.
Do we need a direction for this gathering.
We've been South to Kangaroo Valley
West out Bells Line
North Putty.

Where to next?
I'll have a look at my new Bike book but if anyone has a suggestion pitch it up.

How about East 











to Eastern creek

You're saying that we have been North, South & West. My vote is to NOT go East.

So should we start another thread for 18th September?

EDIT: Dez, responded while I took a phone call. Eastern Creek is 14th August

That's the 14th of August but also in a different thread.

Bugger Im in New York until the 16th so no EC for me

Would people be interested in a weekend trip to do the Oxley highway loop?

Over nighter in Armidale or something?

or that Bylong loop??

Has anyone done the 5 ferries ride..  Just a thought.......stole the following info........

A quick stop at Spencer. Then on our way to Wiseman’s, OH NO!!! The road was blocked by police taking measurements after fatal car MVA. A 10 minute delay and on our way again.
Morning tea at Wiseman Ferry, then on past St Albans Ferry, riding along the beautiful River Rd to Pit Town Ferry, where we couldn’t fit the 22 bikes on the empty ferry (!!!).
Across the Sackville Ferry, then the Berowra Ferry to lunch at PITS (Pie In The Sky).
Up the full length of the now open Old Pacific Hwy to Somersby and finished with ice creams at West Gosford Maccas.
We all had a wonderful day.
So many roads, so little time.

That sounds alright.
I think DOC-NSW do that ride.

I have been on the 5 ferries ride with the DOCNSW , it was a good day out.

Welcome aboard Dallas.

We normally have a big group ride once every two months but there are usually a few shorter-notice rides posted up in between. We are planning the next bigger group ride now and its looking like Sat. 18th September ... there should be a new thread started soon.
