CENTRAL COAST - 8 TO 14 AUGUST 2021

 9 AUGUST

A cycle at Gosford waterfront.






We started at East Gosford near the Sailing Club and followed the cycle track around the waterfront of Brisbane Water. A great ride - parklands, bridges, boardwalks, tunnels! A number of people doing the same thing either by foot or pedal.

10 AUGUST

A sunrise surf check at Wamberal Beach and North Avoca Beach.




A mountain bike ride on summit tracks of Rumbalara Reserve.





We did a n umber of circuits of the top track in both directions a couple of times. Free flowing and relatively flat. 

11 AUGUST

A kayak at Erina Creek.





The wind was light and the tide was slightly in my favour for the paddle. The best part was after the Sunken Monkey Hotel where the shoreline looked more natural and to a degree untouched.

12 AUGUST

A hike at Berrys Head.






This was a fairly rough hike. There was a lot of up and down with some steep parts. The track skirted the base of the summit. The summit was strewn with large boulders. There were also a number of side tracks. One track joined up with the other track at Berry Head.

13 AUGUST

A mountain bike ride at The Old Quarry and Tommos Loop in Brisbane Water National Park.

A fun ride. I thoroughly enjoyed myself in the quarry. I pushed my limits on the rough rock terrain and tried to remain casual. It seemed to work but maybe that was luck. haha. 






Tommos Loop seemed easier than the last time I rode it. Good views and some steep sections.




A fun surf at Wamberal Beach. A really good right just north of the big house. The current was very strong and it was tiring trying to keep in the right take off position. Only two others paddled out. :)
