Update 11 March 2026: Return route to be confirmed on day – likely dependent on availability of petrol in Crookwell and Boorowa – see below for return route options.

Why not join the Club for a longer twisty, uphill and downhill Saturday ride to Trunkey Creek, for lunch at the Black Stump Hotel (approx. 450 km return ex. Sutton bakery)? If you’d prefer a shorter ride, then why not join the first leg of the ride through to Crookwell for coffee (183 km return)?

Outbound: Little Sutton Bakehouse (meeting/set-off point) to Gunning, Grabben Gullen, Crookwell (coffee/rest stop at Matts Bakery Cafe), then onto Binda, Tuena and through to the Black Stump Hotel at Trunkey Creek (178 km): https://maps.app.goo.gl/TAfXySG6iNoHnaUY9

• Via Tuena, Binda, Rugby and Boorowa to Little Sutton Bakehouse (272 km): https://maps.app.goo.gl/MCnohLedKWSnDShc9

Approx. 400-450 km return (depending on return route) on sealed main and secondary roads. Expect some road surfaces to be damaged. Note that outbound and return routes include roads that are hilly and twisty with some hairpin bends.

Meeting Point: Meet fuelled and ready to go at the Little Sutton Bakehouse (1 Victoria St, Sutton), for a prompt 08:45 departure.

GS Riders: For those keen on detouring via gravel or dirt, you’re more than welcome to join us en route, or at the Pub.

Register if you're interested in coming so I can let the Pub know likely numbers for lunch. Please email rides@bmwmcc.au if you plan to meet the group on the way or at the Pub, or head elsewhere after coffee in Crookwell.

For those joining the ride along the way, or making their own way to the Pub, proposed meeting points (with best guess times) are:

• Sutton Bakehouse (Sutton Bakery) - leaving 08:45
• Gunning (opposite Telegraph Hotel but not stopping) - arriving and leaving 09:25
• Crookwell – Matt's Bakery Cafe (152 Goulburn St) arriving 09:55 and leaving by 10:35;
• Black Stump Hotel (8 Arthur St, Trunkey Creek) - arriving 11:55 (includes refuelling time @ Crookwell) - lunch booking @12:00, leaving by 13:30).

Return route rest options  - dependent on route and to decide on day, e.g., Boorowa, Goulburn, Gunning.

Cheers
