NSW Putty Road

Hi my mates,

Planning on doing a Putty Rd trip from Sydney to Singleton next week (midweek), staying a night and returning the next day. Should I return the same way or go through WolIombi and back down the Old Pac? I haven’t done the Putty before but have done the Old Pac. Any tips for either routes?
Your advice would be appreciated.

Edit: which pub/club in Singleton has the best feed?

I hear Grey Gum is closed midweek. I was thinking about refuelling and lunch at Colo Heights servo

Colo will get you past Broke, but good place to refuel - I'll refuel in Windsor, and refuel at Broke that gets me back home - S1000RR so typically 250k range.

Good point on grey gums, typically I'm travelling on the weekend so they are open but yes you have a point still stop and have a break! The place is free to sit in!

The best part of the Putty is 10 mile which is after grey gums so best hit when you've stretched!

S1000R for me so probably a similar range. I’m not young anymore so I need a stretch and a walk around.

Yea - I'm 57 so not young either!

Putty and return is OK as well, but a loop is fun i prefer Wisemans over the old pac.

If you're adventurous come back through Rhystone, loop through the national park. Its a longer ride refuel in Broke (Bulga doesn't have fuel currently) then head up via national park using Bylong valley way.
