Description


This ride offers a rolling country-side journey on the central coast. The ride starts from Tuggerah Station, passes through Wyong and its peaceful river prior to heading out to the rolling country roads of Yarramalong Valley. The ride will turn around on Yarramalong Rd just before Bumble Hill Rd at Yarramalong, which is also where there are a couple of Cafes. The return trip will mostly retrace the route out but will bypass Wyong. (This ride is also comfortably ridden in reverse with Wyong being visited on the return journey enabling coffee to be had at the Wyong Milk Factory instead, or other cafes nearby). The ride can be shortened by turning around earlier on Yarramalong Rd. There are no designed additional opt-in or opt-out points, however the ride does initially pass Wyong railway station. Additionally, you can turn around at any point and retrace the route. If you choose to leave the ride, please let the ride leader or sweep know BEFORE you leave the ride, ensuring the person acknowledges they heard you!

Notes: Train arrives at Wyong shortly after 9am, and we will commence ride soon after. Train departs 7.40am from Epping. Check departure time for your preferred station to join train, please. Train should be an OSCAR so easy travel for bikes. Coffee will be at Yarramalong Manor, before return to Wyong.

Pre-registration is required through the Bike North website link
