Pheasant Wood Circuit looks good to me. As long as you did your best to show you were there and are seem honest it works for me.

When I saw the map go through Bathurst, I was hoping you would go to the track. I have watched quite a few V8 supercar races there. Really like the ride reports since I have only experienced Australia through movies and Mighty Car Mods.

Claiming ignorance usually works in most cases. I remember a large number of people during a rally taking pictures of a jail, which you apparently can't do. I'm sure by number 8 or 9 they were very tired of chasing us off.

Wondering what "winter" means where you live. Here is means 0°F for about three months, with occasional days of -25°F to -35°F and snow anywhere from a few inches to 3 feet. I think I would take your winter any day over mine.
RE: My 2022 Grand Tour Activity - DownUnder - 08-09-2022 04:45 PM
Hmmmmmm, yes, it would seem that there are some differences. On a really cold Winter's day here, the overnight temperature will drop to a bitterly cold +40*F, while the day-time temps are around +55*F... Maybe a heavy frost from time to time, but no snow.

I spent yesterday on a "day ride" collecting some bonuses up in the Hunter Valley area, north of my home. My Ride Report No 5 is available for your reading pleasure.

Hope you enjoyed the tour! As far as I know, you were the first international rider to sign up for a GLMC GT, and there were three total from Australia this year.
RE: My 2022 Grand Tour Activity - DownUnder - 09-26-2022 07:16 PM
I had a great time on the Grand Tour and I am looking forward to the 2023 event.
I am guessing that I may not the first International rider, as Canada is just a stone's throw away from you, so maybe I'm just the first Australian rider to join the GT.
I am also glad to have 2 other Aussies also sign up for this year's event as it will give us our own "local" competition, and local bragging rights.
