Hey Nic,
Im in the middle of swapping out my mobile number at the moment. Should have it sorted tomorrow but please PM me your number.
Bungendore, Braidwood, six of one half a dozen of the other really. I was looking at the map and thought that Goulburn to Tarago to Braidwood was a more direct route and it is away from the main stream traffic. Should be a pleasant drive as well.
If you are going through Bungendore I assume you will be going in via Captains Flat? Either way still takes you to the turn off on Captains Flat Road and S Forest Way.
Dunno if that way is any shorter though.
I'll jump on CH17 when in Goulburn.
