 Stunning ride through the forests of the Royal National Park with the smell of the Eucalyptus trees, and birds singing. Very Disney like. Then out of the Park you're hit with a stunning view of the East Coast. Rest of the 30 kms is all coast line, up and over along the ridges. A lot of steep downhill runs, a few climbs but never for long. Take sunscreen. Take sunnies. Take plenty of water as there aren't that many refill stations along the way.

I recently bought a Garmin Edge 500 to track my rides. But soon found out it's also able to do basic navigation if you have a .TCX file.
