The Cat's Away — Day 15

Jamberoo to Sydney

Master Map

As I loaded the bike in the morning, I heard the exquisite music of a Staintune powered by Honda's CB1100 motor. Moments later, debonair as always, Pterodactyl pulled in with his bike set up for day touring. We had a cup of tea and hit the road—a pretty circular one really, but good fun.

We started by searching for the Belmore Falls which involved a bit of pretty dirt road. I think I saw a turn off, but I didn't see the falls.

Then we took a ride down Kangaroo Valley. It was memorable for the white Mitsubishi station wagon that appeared on my tail somewhere on the Berry road and wouldn't let go. I shook him off by overtaking a car, but he reappeared. He was a tailgater so I let him pass. Pterodactyl did too and he soon vanished into the distance. He certainly knew what he was doing on a reasonably difficult road.

Then it was some freeway work before a ride back up the escarpment for another pie at Robertson.

Some pretty back roads …

… passing by a lovely dry stone wall before we reached Mittagong.

More freeway work heading into the afternoon build up…

… before a brief sortie into the southern reaches of the Royal National Park and thence to Sydney.
