Hello, thank you very much for creating this rail trail. We came from Sydney to ride it. We began and Rosewood and rode to Tumbarumba and back at a in. It’s a fabulous trail. We had breakfast in Tumbarumba and then lunch on our return at Gone Barmy which was delicious, ver friendly service and a great way to end a great ride. We met wonderful people while riding. We hope you are able to extend the trail into Gundagai and Wagga. Well done to you cycling enthusiasts and Snowy Valleys Council. I will tell all my cycling friends and we will be back.
