Stage Two

Thursday saw us take a detour to Greenwall Point to surprise Jen & Gary for the night. We decided to take the 'short' route through Bathurst/Oberon/Goulburn however once we got onto the Oberon road we thought we'd try a different route and turned off at Connell to Black Springs. Beautiful scenery and we realized that we had no idea how much logging there is in that area. It was pretty cold going through the mountains and there was snow still lying around at lunch time.
We then decided to take another turn off and go through Wombeyan Caves onto Mittagong - which would have been a great idea if the road hadn't been washed out the other side of the caves. A Note to the Shire/s concerned -- a sign would have been helpful!
The Wombeyan caves are located in the Blue Mountains National Park and are a definite return visit in warmer weather.
After Goulburn we came through Kangaroo Valley into Nowra. Now this is a road we've done a few times but for those who haven't you need to put this on your to-do list. We can highly recommend this for motorbikes.
Now if we had been smart we would have videoed Jen's reaction when she saw us arrive unannounced!  It was priceless and we are so glad we made the detour south.
Jen we appreciate you breaking out the Verve and look forward to catching up again soon.
