Out of towner(s) going for a lap of Kinross

NB: Originally posted elsewhere on the Global Riders Network and appears via syndication.
When: 
Wednesday, 8 October, 2014 - 15:00
Ride Database Entry: 
Kinross State Forest
Meeting Point: 

Duh

Meet at the Bulgas Road carpark, Western edge of the forest.

Drive out from Orange on the Ophir Rd, before you reach the rubbish tip, turn right onto Bulgas Rd. Follow this about 2km to the forest (the road turns to gravel).

Note that the 'Directions there' google maps link below may not give the best route/destination. It seems that google maps ignores Bulgas Rd when selecting a route and gives the next closest spot. The 'Meeting point' link should be correct.

Hello locals

As part of a 1 week roadtrip i'm looking to come sample some sweet Kinross singletrack. If anyone's interested the more the merrier

Cheers

Drive out from Orange on the Ophir Rd, before you reach the rubbish tip, turn right onto Bulgas Rd. Follow this about 2km to the forest (the road turns to gravel).

I need to take a trip to Orange on the weekend on family business, so thought I'd visit the renowned Kinross trails and do a couple of laps (40km?)

If anyone from northern Sydney would like to tag along I'm happy to provide a lift, although Saturday afternoon I need to spend doing some boring stuff in town (assess a house for renovations). Can leave either Friday night or early Saturday.

Heading home straight after post ride tank refill (aka lunch).

Let me know preferences so I can make motel bookings earlier rather than later by Wednesday PM.
