Proposed 2008 - Attempt Home to Grafton

Well drove the Kyogle rd down to see my Dad again Yesterday. Still studying the riding route. Am attempting to work out day trip distances and over-night stop locations.

A couple of things worth noting is, firstly the "Signage is crap!"

71km just 6k difference

So thats 71 kilometers if you add the two directions

65km OK!

And 65 kilometers adding the two directions

68km

Now its 68 kilometers if you add the two directions

So 6000 meters of hills over ~70k is about a 9% error. So Quite a bit of local shire to local shire sign errors. Who is wrong? and who is right? do they (the local authorities) really give a damn?

Sorry about the Quality of the images I used the phone!

I measured Kyogle to Murwillumbah at around 70km when I rode it.
