It was a chilly Saturday winters morning when I decided to explore my own backyard. My modus operandi is to get as far away from city riding and lights as soon as I can. The goal is to take the direct route out from Newtown (inner west of Sydney) , heading north, west, or south—wherever adventure awaits. Usually, it’s all about escaping the city as quickly and easily as possible. However, this time, I broke my routine, and let me tell you, it took some time to find the inspiration. But I did, and I discovered some great stops along the way.
