Andrew – I’ll send you an email 🙂
I agreee with Groundhog – North Kobble is a pleasant and easy “first time” site it’s not far from Hawkins Road, but there’s currently no water in the creek, so you’d need to go upstream for about 1km to top up with water. If you’ve got heavy bikes don’t try riding up “Chicken Break” – it’s extremely steep.

We just did a ride to North Kobble Campground.
If you have someone wanting to try it for the first time, this is a short ride into the campsite. It does have a nasty pinch climb on the bitumen on the way out. It’s only about 1/2 hr ride from the Dayboro Samford Rd. There is also the Northbrook ridge campsite which has a nice view and is a few klms in along Lawton Rd. You have to get your water from the tank further down Lawton Rd. GH

Umm, Dave’s selling himself short. He was doing 4 times your daily kms … mind you I just came back from an overnighter where we did a TOTAL of 60km over an afternoon and the following morning, and I needed a nap when I got home.

Neil … I’m looking for an easy overnighter to do with a couple of friends who are giving this a go for the first time … the shores of a lake out on the northside somewhere??

If I do that I don’t think I’ll be able to bring the cheese and wine though 🙂
