We started off travelling along the Kings Highway riding towards our first coffee stop at Nelligen, where our group enjoyed the peace of the river while waiting for our food and caffeine hits.
We continued after the short break weaving our way down the road towards the Adelaide Hotel at Moruya. The biggest surprise was the different weather and reduced temperature as we came down the escarpment. This possibly contributed to a reduced amount of traffic which added to the enjoyment of a lovely stretch of road with a great selection of curves dotted along the way.
We rode into the carpark at the rear of the Adelaide, walking into the hotel to find our table reserved for us. Anticipating what was on today’s menu we started off with cold drinks to cool us down while listening to the diverse conversations, tales tall and true, over our lunch break.
We traveled back to our homes in different groups with some of the off road bikes taking the alternate route through Araluen. Others went via Nerriga to add a different spin to their journey.
As usual for a Sunday we encountered some traffic traveling west with us, slowing the ride back to Braidwood. I left the group at Bungendore and trust that everyone made it safely home.
Once again we had a great day out with good food and friends - we hope to see more of you on our next ride.
