Notes

Top
Left @ 14:15
back home @ 17:15. Dark around 5pm.
did 230km.
Used 10.6L fuel (98 octante)
4.6L/100km - large sections of 100kph
Overcast but fine. Sunset on the Federal Highway, Sun going under the cloud base - very beautiful.
No pix.

The Yass River Road - signage is 43km from Gundaroo to Yass. Maybe half dirt.
Moslty good hard packed clay - be ugly when wet. Some loose gravel.
Some slow, windy sections. Very typical 'Highlands' country. 

Only one kangaroo on the road :-)

Didn't plan this trip, just wanted to get out of the house.
Had an intent to visit Gundaroo, via the Barton Highway to Yass.
Did a lot of 'follow my nose'.
