Keen for a corners and back roads Sunday ride (TS & GS options)? Then why not join the Club for a run through Rye Park to Boorowa (for coffee), then onto Frogmore, Darbys Falls, Cowra and through to Koorawatha, for lunch at Hotel Koorawatha @12:15? If a direct route’s more your cup of tea, then meet us at the pub for lunch, or if a shorter ride’s more your thing, then why not join for the first leg through to Boorowa for coffee (220 km return)?

Outbound: Ex. Ampol/Caltex Foodary, Gold Creek (Nicholls) to Rye Park, Boorowa (coffee/rest stop), Frogmore, Darbys Falls, Cowra, then onto Koorawatha via the Olympic Hwy (228 km):  https://maps.app.goo.gl/QZdbApLMWc31NdMW6

• GS breakout option ex. Boorowa: via Kenyu Rd, Cocomingla Lane, Bennett Springs Rd and Reids Flat Rd to LVW, then onto Noonbinna E Rd to Noonbinna Rd and onto the Olympic Hwy to Koorawatha (99 km): https://maps.app.goo.gl/TjAvxx6RYi8AFSKCA

Note: TS and GS timings ex. Boorowa to Koorawatha are similar (1½ hrs).

Return: Each to their own and to decide on the day:

• Shortest TS route back via Murringo Gap Rd (161 km):  https://maps.app.goo.gl/k19VukGaFjNAQpmK9
• GS option via Fishers Lane (7 km dirt) and Murringo Gap Rd: https://maps.app.goo.gl/uCkWG9e4TRniqScb7

Approximately 390 km return (to Ampol Nicholls)  - TS on sealed main and secondary roads (expect damaged surfaces).

Fuel: Available in Boorowa and Cowra.

Meeting Point: Meet fuelled and ready to go at the Ampol/Caltex Foodary, Gold Creek (Nicholls) for an 08:15 set-off.

Register if you're interested in coming so I can let the Pub know likely numbers for lunch. Please email rides@bmwmcc.au if you plan to meet the group on the way or at the Pub (and it isn’t already identified on your registration), or head elsewhere after coffee in Boorowa.

For those joining the ride along the way, or making their own way to the Pub, proposed meeting points (with best guess times) are:

• Ampol/Caltex Foodary, Gold Creek (Nicholls) – dep. 08:15;
• Murrumbateman Country Inn – passing by 08:40 (not stopping);
• The Bakery Boorowa, 38 Marsden St, Boorowa (coffee stop) – arr. 09:45, dep. by 10:25; and
• Hotel Koorawatha, 4340 Olympic Hwy, Koorawatha – arr. 12:10 (includes refuelling time in Cowra).

Return route rest stop - to decide on the day.

Cheers
