Bike North Wins Grant 2 WHAT HAPPENED? Winter riding 3 The NSW State Budget slashed the funding for cycling over 50% for 2005/6, with the major impact felt in implementing BikePlan 2010. There will be no construction work on the regional Events 3 cycleway network this fi nancial year and totally inadequate funding for design work, putting future years construction at threat. There is also the distinct possibility that this cut will continue into Bike North AGM & Picnic 3 future years.

Making Cycling Better 5 WHY DID THIS HAPPEN? Ministerial direction. We have been fortunate for over six years to have a champion for cycling Bike Maintenance & Repair 7 in State Government, Minister Scully. While his priority was the Western Suburbs, he did achieve kilometres of recreational cycleway which we enjoy on our social rides. Just as the focus of Bike North Members Survey 8 BikePlan 2010 is moving to our northern areas and routes more useful for everyday cycling, we are now under the direction of Minister Costa who appears to have an antipathy to cycling, or Bike Even Norther – The at least to spending money on cycling facilities. Newcastle Weekend 8 HOW DOES THIS AFFECT US? With no money, regional routes that were scheduled for design and construction cannot move Book Review – Zinn’s Cycling Primer 9 forward. At best, this signifi cantly delays, or more likely, puts in great doubt the critical northern routes.

  • Colo River Drive ~ Hawkesbury Region NSW
    Colo River Drive ~ Hawkesbury Region NSW Please acknowledge © Hawkesbury People & Places 2015 ~ www.hawkesbury.org This drive commences in Kurrajong Village, travels along Comleroy Road, then East Kurrajong Road, crosses the Hawkesbury River at Sackville Ferry and then proceeds on to the Lower Portland Ferry. The road then follows the course of the Colo River from its confluence with the Hawkesbury and on to Upper Colo where the drive climbs the ridge then descends again to cross the causeway over Wheeny Creek. After following the length of Comleroy Road the drive ends where it meets Bells Line of Road at Kurrajong. Distance: 71kms Note: Enjoy the drive but please take care as the route includes both tar sealed and narrow gravel roads. Road surface conditions are variable and are subject to change. Always adjust your speed according to the prevailing road and weather conditions. Distances are approximate. Driving Time: 2.5 hours plus allowance for two vehicular ferry crossings 1. Kurrajong Village to Stanley Park East Kurrajong ~ 14 kms From Old Bells Line of Road turn right at the traffic lights onto Bells Line of Road then left onto Comleroy Road. Continue for 3 kms then turn right into East Kurrajong Road. Points of Interest: East Kurrajong Road follows The Bull Ridge, a landform which runs from Comleroy Road corner almost to Sackville. The road winds through East Kurrajong which was an important mixed farming area during the late 19th and early 20th centuries famous for growing mandarins, apricots and passionfruit. The ‘Caselin’ early ripening apricot was developed in this area.

  • NSW Tides 2019 – 2020
    NSW Tides 2019–2020 Tidal predictions for Sydney Harbour with moon phases July 2019 – June 2020 Tidal predictions are calculated by the Tidal Unit, Bureau of Meteorology from daily tide recordings made at Fort Denison in Sydney Harbour. Tide heights refer to zero on the Fort Denison Tide Gauge, being approximately the level of the Lowest Astronomical Tide. Times are in local standard time (UTC +10:00) or daylight savings time (UTC +11:00) when in effect. Tide heights are quoted in metres. Tide heights of 1.7 metres or more, and 0.3 metres or less, are highlighted for trip planning and risk awareness. Users of these tables should be aware that the heights shown in this publication are predictions for average meteorological conditions only and that the actual water level height may vary due to meteorological conditions (including barometric pressure, wind effect and storm surges) and seasonal variations.
