Description of this Bike Ride

The ride leaves the Greengrocer Cafe and Bike shop at the corner of Ellesmere and Clifford Streets. Here you can get anything from a spare tube to fruit salad and yoghurt and a great coffee. Ride up Clifford Street for 1km until you reach Deccan Street where you turn left. Go another 1km and turn left into Addison Street. A slight climb takes you to the town limit and top of the hill at 3.45km. After this is a good decent down to the Wollondilly River at 6.25km. Continue along through the undulations. At 12.70km is a sharp left hand turn and you cross over the river. Just after the bridge on your right is the famous property 'Kippilaw'. One of the early Australian pioneering families the Durack's settled here. A book has been written about the family called 'Kings In Green Castles' by Patsy Durack. Stay on the Gurrundah Road. You will start to climb up into the Great Dividing Range at around 19km. At 28km, continue along Gurrundah Road, ignore turn to the left. At 34km, continue along Gurrundah Road, ignore turn to the right. At 38.5km, cross over Hume's Bridge and climb steeply. A low gearing is required. At 42km, turn right to Crookwell on the Gunning Crookwell Road. Caution here with a gravel road surface for 1.5km. Preparation for sealing the road were underway at time of writing. Either way, a road can handle the smooth dirt surface. At 53.20km, you reach the Grabben Gullen Hotel and General Store where drinks and snacks are available after 10am. Continue ahead. When you pass the Crookwell Rubbish Tip, you are at the highest point. After this is a fast decent into Crookwell. At 65.80km, turn right into Carrington Street(main street).
