Lithgow - Capertee Valley
Peter Beggs and myself had a fabulous day out...
Lithgow to Capertee via Blackfellows Hands, Baal Bone Gap, Gardens of Stone NP into Capertee Valley, and to the Hwy @ Capertee.
Weather was exceptional and we had a hoot through some of the most picturesque country around...

Entries open for 2009 Capertee-Challenge 26/27th September
Entries have just opened for 2009 Capertee-Challenge 26/27th September at www.capertee-challenge.com . I did it last year and it was a lot of fun and the two 50km+ loops over saturday afternoon and sunday morning is an interesting way to wind down from the more difficult 100km Mogo ride whilst keeping fitness.

The START/FINISH location is at Mount Airly. approx 9 kilometres down the GLEN DAVIS Road (turn right at 50 meters past the Shell Capertee Roadhouse –we will have a sign out at this turnoff on the Saturday morning)
The course is set in the Capertee Valley, 180 kilometres west of Sydney, Australia, in a stunning area comprised of sandstone cliffs and abundant wildlife. There are some easy and some difficult sections on the course.The Saturday afternoon is a 52 kilometre circuit, starting and finishing at the camp site.
The next morning the course will be run in reverse, and that is where you can challenge yourself, your time from the day before, and the overall result.
