Newnes Today (NSW)

Hi Footloose

Hi John, I agree ! I used to own a 21ft boat, with motors not sail. Had some great times until I got a tad too old to put it on and off the trailer at 3am in the winter :((

Hey johannagoanna
The corrigations are between Blackfellows Hand Rd (Wolgan Gap) and Newenes, no avoiding them mate. I was down there Mothers day with the family and my sons eyesight has only now come good again as he had to drive the rd in an ancient Patrol with lots of rattles, poor bugger.

Sorry, you are right, I just got a bit carried away! Wish you could still get up to the glow worms from newnes, that would fix it!!

Mate, ya not wrong! Try the road from the Zig Zag station at Clarence, down to the Glow Worm tunnel car park on any weekend. The dirt bikers scream through that area and Ive come across them two and three abreast on the corners, doing warp speed one. Yes, mostly unregistered( and more than likely uninsured) who with total and complete disregard to the safety of others, ply their machines wanting to end up mascots on someones bullbar. About time the jack boots from Lithgow Highway Patrol got off their butts and sorted these "accidents waiting to happen" guys out.

And "NO" I'm not an anti dirt biker, however I am anti those two and four wheelers, who have no regards for the safety of others.

Spot on, Signman & Macca,
I fear this sort of behaviour (it's been going on for ages), will be all the amunition needed for the greenies/Colong Wilderness Foundation to have their proposal for the extension of the Gardens Of Stone NP granted. This proposal is before the NSW Parliament as we speak. If they get their way the whole area will be closed off to all but bushwalkers. I don't know the answer. Most of us do the right thing but as we know it only takes a few and..............................you know the rest.
