At the
Old Bathurst Saleyards a map of the circuit with a
short history. |
 |
Vale
Road. This small strip of the circuit was bitumen, the
rest gravel. |
 |
Suicide Bend. 90MPH on a bike, on gravel. Aptly named. |
 |
Further down the 2 mile long straight. |
 |
We
head into the tree's. |
 |
Approaching the left that takes us to. |
 |
Kable's Bridge. |
 |
It's
here the modern road deviates from the original
layout. |
 |
Further along we pick up the gravel road on the left
to take us back onto the Original Layout.
Note : If you're driving a lap it's extremely easy to
miss this road as it's an extremely tight hairpin. |
 |
The
steep stretch up to Mount Tamar is much as it was. |
 |
A very
undulating section as can be seen. Photo's don't
really capture it. |
 |
Best
to take note of the sign. |
 |
Because this is right over the rise. |
 |
Out of
the tight right a short straight to a similar left. |
 |
Mount
Tamar. |
 |
Tamar
Straight. |
 |
Some
more undulation further on to keep you busy. |
 |
Back
on the black stuff. |
 |
The
town of Bathurst lies straight ahead. |
 |
Approaching Wrights Corner. |
 |
Wrights Corner. |
 |
The
short straight back to the Saleyards. |
 |
Palmers
Bridge. |
 |
Mount
Panorama in the distance. |
 |
Approaching the Yards to complete a lap of Vale. |
