Came up two days ago and best trip yet. It's pretty good now as almost all towns are by passed...after Newcastle you only have Coffs Harbour and Grafton and I noticed the new bridge at Grafton reaches all the way across the river so it should not be long where there is a better route thru there...certainly the quickest trip I have had ..from door to door 9.5 hours ..one food stop and one petrol stop.
The road from Drake to Tenterfield is pretty bad..it has elbow corners that always seem to catch you out ..you slow up knowing it's crook but nevertheless you are still just a little too fast..
The Galston Gorge road from Hornsby Heights to Galston is another.
