The Illawarra Bicycle Users Group’s Guide to cycling in the Illawarra

Compiled by Werner Steyer

First edition September 2006

Revision 2 August 2008

Introduction

This cycling ride guide and associated maps have been produced by the Illawarra Bicycle

Users Group (iBug) to promote cycling in the Illawarra.

The ride guides and associated maps are intended to assist cyclists in planning selfguided

outings in the Illawarra area. All persons using this guide accept sole

responsibility for any losses or injuries uncured as a result of misinterpretations or errors

within this guide

Cyclist and users of this Guide are responsible for their own actions and no warranty or

liability is implied.

Should you require any further information, require an updated copy of the guide, find

any errors or have suggestions for additional rides please contact us at

iBugRides@yahoo.com.au or PO Box 741 Wollongong 2500

Updated ride information is also available form the iBug website at

http://au.groups.yahoo.com/group/illawarrabug/files/iBug%20Rides/.

As the conditions may change due the road and cycleway alteration by Councils and the

RTA and weather conditions cyclists must be prepared to change their plans and riding

style to suit the conditions encountered.

As the Illawarra is a narrow coastal strip, sandwiched between the Pacific Ocean and the

Illawarra Escarpment, many of the rides are described as one way rides and riders need to

retrace the route for the return journey. Alternately people can utilize trains to reach the

start of rides or for the return trip, please remember to check that trains are running, as

buses used during periods of track work don’t have provision for bicycles.

Many of the rides described can be linked to make longer rides to match your riding

needs.

Visitors to the area, with limited time, may wish to enjoy the best of the Illawarra’s

cycling facilities and scenery by catching a train to either Kiama or Thirroul and riding

the coastal route in one direction. Riders should consult the weather forecast and plan to

use the wind to their advantage.

The maps associated with the various rides are intended to depict the rides and location

on shared path and cycling lanes. In addition to the iBug maps riders should carry an area

map, such as the UBD Wollongong Map, to aid in navigation and find streets not shown

on the iBug maps

Distances shown in ride descriptions, (7.3 km), are approximate distances form the start

of the ride.

The start and finish of rides is depicted by a blue dot with the ride number. The start and

finish of rides are generally located in parks, where there is space to park cars. Many of

the rides also start and finish near railway stations to give cyclist the option of using

trains to join the rides.

Safety:

Know and follow the Rules:

All riders must have an understanding of the road rules pertaining to cyclist; see

the RTA web site at www.rta.nsw.gov.au/rulesregulations/index.html for further

information.

Ride Grading:

Easy: Rides indicated as easy are rides which predominately use Shares Path and back

streets and have few long steep hills unless stated in the ride descriptions. The rides are

suitable for people of average fitness and limited cycling experience. Be prepared to walk

on steep hills.

Moderate: These rides could have sections of heavy rod traffic, some steep hills and are

more suited to riders with experience at riding on roads as they have a grater interaction

with general road users

Hard: These rides will be predominately on rods with section of multi-lane fast moving

traffic and with long steep hills to negotiate.

Extreme: Riders can expect numerous long steep hill roads with heavy fast moving

traffic and the rides are suitable only to people used to riding under those conditions
