... I did a bit of fire trail work in Werakata NP. Accessible from the road into Lovedale Cottages. Previous time I went up to Singleton for a real mtb track and also rode up Pokolbin Mountains Rd - I think that is used in the Port to Port.
Awaba is about 40mins drive. Definitely worth it. Singleton is also fun but slightly farther.
It's about 20 - 30 minutes from Pokolbin at the end of Milbrodale Road.

Though they now finish at a different location, the original stage 2 was a loop from Lindemans Cellar Door, as per below.

Great views at the top and the Down the Rabbit Hole section is supposed to be fun, though I haven't ridden it (yet).
You can cut out the first half of the climb by driving up the dirt road (about 4 kms in on the link) as you will come right past it again on the way back.
Thanks Pyrate, will give it a go
One of my favourite tracks - thanks Bloodpuddle
Thanks Daniel & Lach, these should keep me busy for the weekend
