Description
The North Shore Cycleway Bike-Cache Adventure #4
North Shore Cycleway Series #4:
Gore Hill Gangway
Please see the NSCS #1 cache page for the background to the series, route planning and general advice.
This Cache: The Gore Hill Cycleway extends over 8.4km from Epping Rd, North Ryde to Naremburn. You've only been on it since the turnoff at Artarmon Reserve just before NSCS#3. Time for one more stop before the Gore Hill Expressway becomes the Warringah Freeway that takes you to the Harbour Bridge. The North Shore Cycleway crosses the river of cars here and then plunges down to join the flow of traffic. There is a GC cache near the bridge so I moved this one a little way down the hill before you cross it. You get a good view from the apex of the cyclebridge. Enjoy it, as you are now about to enter the "Missing Link"... a long overdue extension to join the Gore Hill and Harbour Bridge Cycleways... and things will get a little interesting from here on!
The Final: Just like my original series here there is a puzzle cache final to be found! Collect the bits of co-ords from each of the caches along the way, piece them together, and voila! There will be a bonus box for you to discover at journeys end. Please leave the laminated Co-ords cards in the original caches for others to find.
Check Out the Rest of the Series:
NSCS #1 - NSCS #2 - NSCS #3 - NSCS #4 - NSCS #5 - NSCS #6 - NSCS #7 (Final)
