This run takes us from Sutherland, through the National Park, then inland
to the restaurant at Mt Keira, a superb location overlooking the coast.
This route has a mixture of fast and winding roads that are generally
quite good. The objective is breakfast at Mt Keira, west of Wollongong, and then
on to the Nan Tien Temple at Berkeley for a look at their gardens.
