Description
2. Gerroa Road was the major rat route for people living at Gerroa and Gerringong going to Nowra. The Berry bypass has reduced the traffic but it still can be a busy road with speeding cars, the road has a wide shoulder but be careful.
3. Don’t forget to turn right at Beach Road and go and see the sea at Seven Mile Beach. (There are good toilets in the Beach Road Picnic Area.) Then return to Berry up the quieter, tree lined Beach Road.
Notes: This forms one of four weekend rides around the Nowra area.See https://www.bikenorth.org.au/our-events/nowra-weekend/ for more details.It is designed for people coming to Nowra for the weekend, allowing us all time to drive down from Sydney and break our journey with a ride starting at Berry. It is a short route through pleasant countryside.There are no cafes on the bike route so the plan is: An early lunch at Berry and then consider buying a bite to eat in Berry. We stop at Seven Mile Beach and have a picnic in the park at Beach Road Picnic Area where there are public toilets.
