Hey Sydney-siders,

Date: Saturday April 17, 2010

Meet up: The old toll gates at Berowra on the Pacific Hwy.

Destination: Harrigans Irish pub, Pokolbin NSW.

Time: 9.30am meet up for a 10am departure.



Details: Leave from Hornsby and jump on to the F3. Continue along the F3 until the Peats Ridge exit. From there we exit the F3 and continue along Peats Ridge road until Central Mangrove, where we follow George Downs Drive through Buckety and take the Great North Road through the state forest. When we reach Wollombi we will then take Paynes Crossing Road which will take us through more of the Pokolbin state forest (Twisties), until we get to Broke and turn on to Broke road to enter the Hunter Valley, and then finally stop at Harrigans Irish Pub on Broke road for lunch. Don't worry, there is plenty of car space!

We will be stopping Peats Ridge, so anyone from Central Coast / Newcastle feel free to meet up with the group there. Exact location has not been decided, feel free to make a suggestion!

Make sure you have a full tank of petrol before leaving, as you will most likely use this entire tank on the round trip.

We will be coming back via Cessnock and the F3, so people can take there appropriate exists from there (central coast etc..) or fill up with more petrol if need be.

Don't forget your UHF radios !

I have heard that Paynes Crossing Road is closed to through traffic between Wollombi and Broke (a guy who was up there in late Feb). I'd suggest making some calls to information centres/pubs/servos in the area

you in mate? Dylan and I did the drive last Saturday and the road is open now

would love to but have two different things on that day unfortunately.

Good to hear the road is open again

This sounds good,

Wold love to come but am not sre at the moment will let yo know closer to the date.

.. competing for numbers with the other one already up there on the 11th so you may not get a huge turn out... i may come depending on how much money i wanna spend that weekend on petrol.

Haha oh cr*p i hadn't seen that. Actually i had seen it but totally forgot lol. Sorry Jovi not trying to steal your thunder mate!!

In that case we might look at moving it back the following weekend. Watch this space

There should be a google maps pic in my first post. I think i might try and do both cruises as well. Let me know what you decide.

The following weekend would be better for me too

Your pics are showing as red crosses. If they are on another forum or something, if we arn't members we wont have access

ok i've updated the map image. I've also changed the date to the following weekend so hopefully that works out better for everyone!!

That's better.

The top pic in your sig is still a red cross tho )

hmm thats weird coz it's hosted on the same photobucket account as the map and the other pic in my sig?!?

Interested I'll let you know closer to the date.

me too
