Best Thing about This Ride

The scenery along the Bell is spectacular. The Apple Pie at Bilpin is the best I have ever had.

What Else to Look Out For

The Bell Line can have an unexpected bump or two… Practice safe riding and it is ok.

Also the traffic on the great western hwy can get heavy on Sunday Afternoons.
