Yes , us evil car fanatics are on the way again huh !looks like the govt has boosted its chances of robbing the general public..... Sorry , did I say that ! I mean , targeting the obviously socialy unacceptable scum who enjoy a bit of motor sports! Why must they prey on our lifestyle when there are much more pressing things they could be doing with OUR TIME AND MONEY and actually catching real criminals . But No , there is no easy money in that is there ! they do it all the time . Gather the best road trained officers and give them the power to do what ever they like , as long as there is a dollar in it ! By the best , I mean the cops with a proven record for generating revenue out of situations that may have occured if he hadnt interviened before it happened !

I was out that way yesterday, and the whole day only saw one marked car between Lithgow and Sydney on the way home.
Though we went out to Rylestone, so we took some pretty dodgy back roads.

Only from the outside, but there were plenty of locals outside them.

One has a website, but I'm too scared to look at it.

Hopefully they all migrate to the top of the mountain for the weekend and arrest / beat half the population up there. Cretins, mongoloids, redneck arseholes, that's the entry criteria for the mountain! :

yer i am at Uni at bathurst and drive to back to syd every week. Make sure you avoid school zones.. slow down at the 70 in lithgow and most importantly just b4 you decend mount victoria there are usually alot of coppers..
being a P plater is hard work..

Speaking of Dodgy roads does anyone know any good, other backroads/shortcuts on the way to bathurst that will avoid the cops.... (obviously dont wanna go round the world..)

I wouldn't suggest the way we went yesterday. All the signs said either 90 or 100, but I was getting pretty nervous on some of the roads.

I live in Leura and just to tell you guys, there's an unmarked Rodeo dual-cab going around lately. Not sure where it's from as locals told me it's not from local police, but we have seen it a few times with someone pulled over, strobes in back window and behind front grill.

Default St John Ambulance on duty at Bathurst.

As well as a large contingent of Police at Bathurst, St John Ambulance Volunteers will be on site as well.

There will be a large first aid post on the top of the hill, as well as smaller posts in various places around the place. There will also be roaming squags and B.E.R.T.s (Bicycle Emergency Response Team) so help will never be far away.

If you come across an incident or are injured yourself, please let someone know ASAP, so St John can be called in promptly and the best possible care given to the casualty.

I will be going to Bathurst this year, so if you guys are meeting up somewhere, I might see if I can come and meet some of you in person!

Yes "HillTop" is always fun...

There are some strange, strange individuals up there.

Someone was treated there last year for (?) fractured metacarpals and bleeding after he bit his own hand...

Yes, he took the term "nail biting experience" a bit too far...
