Old Pacific Highway is, in my opinion, hands down the best road in Sydney!!! As a motorbike rider as well I have spent many a day and night there
I live in Mona Vale so have been doing McCarrs Creek Rd regularly my whole driving life, great road, been recently re-tarred. Just do it at an irregular time like night to avoid the cyclists.
And finally I've done Putty Rd loop (Wilberforce - Broke - Wollombi - Old Pac) which takes about 7 hours, twice on my bike and it is about as good as it gets if you want to do a whole day trip and see some country side.
Natio was pretty good but it's just too far away from where I live, and when I did it I had a Forester in front of me doing 50 km/h :(
