Re: bucketts way...update
So you was spotted but my guess of a NC instead it was a NB. We was traveling south with 8 in each group to be able to enjoy the drive.... Now where has that nice white SP gone from sale on a website...... Not another gone north over the border... We have great roads in the hunter..... But councils and govt really spending little on maintaining them....

Well done Gerard, look forward to seeing it. Don't park near any Land Rovers or other British vehicles.

Thanks John, will endeavour to get to a club run in the near future, if not the next track day... Staying well clear of pommy fire lighters!

One of the best ways to get to the New England Area from Sydney is:
Windsor - Singleton - Dungog - Gloucestor - Walcha - Armidale
Sydney to Armidale dodging the Highways

I drove Bucketts Way from Gloucester to Newcastle just before Christmas and didn't recommend it.
Very bumpy and in need of some work

Yeah I last drove it in July 2013 and would want to hear that it has been largely resurfaced before I do it again...
