Racing Locations
« on: March 30, 2010, 06:54:48 am »
Hi

I am new to the area and I am trying to work out where all the race locations are.
In particular I am trying to hunt down the Black Hill and Kooragang Island courses

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated

Cheers

The KOCc and HVVCC clubhouses are in greenleaf Rd, kooragang Island.  Google Earth link : http://maps.google.com.au/maps?oe=UTF-8&ie=UTF8&q=kooragang+island+map&fb=1&gl=au&ei=0SGxS-uXKIXosAP034yxBQ&ved=0CBMQpQY&hl=en&view=map&geocode=FQKLCv4dMmQLCQ&split=0&iwloc=A&sa=X

Blackhill course is on Leneghans Drive, Blackhill, which runs parallel to the Syndey/Newcastle Expressway and is north of the township of Minmi, which is aboriginal for "place of inbreeding hicks who throw XXXX Lite bottles on the cycle course".  HDCC meet just south of the intersection of Lenaghans Dr and Phoenix Rd - you will (on race days) see the "Noel Bromage Memorial Portaloo".  Google Earth link: http://maps.google.com.au/maps?q=black+hill+nsw&rls=com.microsoft:en-au:IE-SearchBox&oe=UTF-8&rlz=1I7GGLR_en&redir_esc=&um=1&ie=UTF-8&hq=&hnear=Black+Hill+NSW&gl=au&ei=TCKxS5-SNpWXkQXOqIw4&sa=X&oi=geocode_result&ct=image&resnum=1&ved=0CAsQ8gEwAA

Hope the links work.
Well, no merger so far....

The Vets club is to the south of the Kocc one.

And here is where you will find the entrance to the Black Hill sign on area.

I know of the Perry clan Breading Habits - they like a mix of wholemeal and white bread crumbs, and use a 2:1 egg:milk mix for the dipping.

I am sure the Perry's are well aware of the antics of some of their inbred neighbours.  Mayor Nigel, who wears the Mayoral skinsuit with pride, has tried to educate these poor cousin lovin folk but sadly it is beyond their meagre abilities - they drink XXXX foreddensakes.
