The CIRCUM BATHURST 2008 tour will be centred around a visit to our historic pioneering regional city of Bathurst. This historic and picturesque city has become more famous over recent decades as the home of arguably the world’ best sedan car epic, “The Bathurst 1000”, held yearly at the Mt Panorama circuit. We will drive this circuit and visit the racing museum.
A PDF with all the details is available here 1.57 Mb.
Also included on our trip, will be a free day in the nation’s capital. Participants will have the option of planning their own activities for this time, which may include visits to such important sites such as Parliament House, The Australian War Museum, The National Gallery, The High Courts amongst many others.
Our planned route will be on sealed roads, avoiding freeways and major highways as much as possible. We will travel via the Gippsland, Southern NSW coast, ACT, Blue Mountains, Central West slopes of NSW, NSW Alpine region, and home via King/Ovens Valley. The detailed route will prove to be through some of the most beautiful and interesting scenery our great nation has to offer. All organised rides will be official led club rides.
