This year a few of our members having purchased bikes from them, were invited to attend the One Ride organised by John from Motociclo one of the Sydney Royal Enfield Dealers.

The One Ride is a Royal Enfield global ride day and is typically arranged by dealers as a way of inviting their customers for a ride.

There were 4 bikes from the Royal Enfield Club of Australia, Bruce, Roger and Narelle, Trevor and Heather and Craig plus about 8 of Johns other customers making a dozen or so which was a good group for a Sunday ride.

We met at Harry’s Cafe de Wheels at Tempe where we were given our One Ride T-shirts and posed for a group photo

From there we followed the Princes Highway south on our way to Sublime Point Lookout but did not get very far before the traffic stopped dead with an accident not far up ahead holding things up.

It wasn’t long before we were moving again

We stopped a few times to re-group along the way but soon we were out of the city traffic and on the highway

Sublime Point has a cafe and picnic area servicing the visitors who arrive either by motor vehicles or via the walking tracks that terminate there.

The lookout is 415m ASL so the views from the escarpment down to the Illawarra coast are fantastic

An excellent Sunday ride with fellow Royal Enfield owners

Thanks goes to John from Motociclo for organising the ride
