    Well jibberers and jabberers and jibbetts time has come around again for this great ride. From this video I took last year we had 26 riders and we all had a blast. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BEnb1ldVFOk

    Now with the meet points I'm going to leave it to yourselves to PM each other where to meet up for Sydney guys but I'm planning on just one official meet point and that is at Shell Servo at the round about at Dural almost opposite Macas.

    For us northerners twin servos south bound obviously leave at 7am. Cruise down be at Dural shell by 8:30am for 9am leave at Dural. Darkman don't forget your gloves remember last time!!!!

    For the sporties last fill up of the good stuff 98 will be at Berowra Heights Caltex before we hit the old road and the twisties. Then you will be ok till we get to Windsor.

    1st stop Caltex Berowra Hights

    2nd stop Central Mangrove car park on the right

    3rd stop Spencer for lunch

    4th stop Wisemans ferry car park for photo's.

    Then onto Sackville ferry and then onto Windsor.

    At Sackville ferry if there is time and people want to ride a little more we can go through Blaxlands Ridge then through Kurrajong and onto Windsor around 40 to 50mins extra then to go straight to Windsor from Sackville ferry.

    LETS RIDE!!!!

    We rode down the old Pacific Hwy on sunday 22nd May, got to Berowra Heights and the road down to Berowra Ferry was closed, probably open now but you may want to check first.

    Im in for this one (weather permitting of course)

    Dont worry about the Berowra Waters ferry. Its only closed Mon-Fri (9am-3pm) for roadworks. Weekends its business as usual. Only thing to watch out for on the roads either side is the amount of crap and loose chippings on the road. Can make a couple of the corners interesting!

    Beaver, considering how good it was last year, I might invite the missus and a couple of mates if it's OK. One rides a Honda Shadow, (technically still a bike), so don't pay out on him!!!!!!!

    I know, that's why I thought I'd do the right thing and ask. No biggie..

    I may be the organiser of this ride but I ain't no dictator either. It is a HD forum but we are not a 1% club. I'm not in a position to say who can and who can't ride on the free roads. To be riding any bike in my book is a brother. I nod my head to any bike when I'm out riding. Even to the local postie. Does It say on this site only hd riders ? If not I don't see any reason why we can't enjoy other bike enthusiasts tagging along. Maybe we will convert them :) plus I don't like to get involved into the politics. But I also see ur point of view mountainman :) majority rules?
