The ride starts at Thirroul station and quickly (;2km) joins the Wollongong Coastal Cycleway. We stop at a Nth Wollongong cafe (15km) for a quick coffee, toilets and lighthouse visit. At the Port Kembla Heritage Park, we have a short break to checkout the small pyramid shaped tank traps and sculptures. The route then continues following the existing BN route to Shellharbour (45km) for a lunch stop by the harbour. Then we ride down the flowing hills towards Minnamurra and through the river forest. At the start of the Coastal Walk at Minnamurra we’ll briefly stop to take in the view northwards to Port Kembla and Wollongong. We are then on quiet back streets towards Bombo Quarry and an optional bail out point at Bombo station depending on train timings. Otherwise we ride on to the backstreets of Kiama to arrive at Kiama station.
