Zathris Member 52 Member For: 21y 8m 25d Location: Canberra Posted 02/11/03 11:15 AM Share Posted 02/11/03 11:15 AM I am leaving Gregorys Braddon at 9am so we can meetMissXR and co at Bathurst at 12:00.I am not driving to Sydney, seems a little pointless to me. Everyone else is welcome to drive to Sydney though!!!! :lol: ok cool, I'll see you there a bit before 9:00am Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm supposing if it is not up the Hume then it must be via Yass and Boorowa? - I have to decide whether I'm going via Sydney or Canberra, or whether I'll just take the shortcut through Goulburn and Crookwell and meet you all at Bathurst at midday.

If the rest of the Canberra crew want to go via Sydney they can! A lot easier going direct to Bathurst from Canberra IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should be a good drive, as I went past Sofala yesterday after a 4WD weekend to Hill End.Here's a pic of a typical moment.... not to be attempted in the XR6T.Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blowhard Member 17 Member For: 21y 6m 21d Gender: Male Posted 04/11/03 08:32 AM Share Posted 04/11/03 08:32 AM For the dirt road wimps.....There is NO dirt road driving required to get to Sofala from either Bathurst or from Ilford on the Lithgow-Mudgee road.The road from Bathurst to Sofala is a nice drive with the highlight being the short hill climb up Mt Wyagdon. For those interested this climb was used for some of the photos in the Motor magazine comparo, of the Fords v Holdens (at Bathurst) from a couple of months ago, I told them to go there and rip loose. A short but spirited driving opportunity. Check out the lollie shop, pub (for some lemonades) and the Gaol cafe (Harvey and Dianne Parsonage are the owners and I'm sure they'd be happy for the group to rollup for lunch)Any more questions?Part time Sofala resident Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
