Newgate Street Climb and The Coach and Horses Pub

Highlight (Segment) • Climb

Maybe not the hardest climb in the area, but if you take it on you've probably just done Carbone Hill, so always a little more of a push than it should be! Lovely lanes and woodlands around to boot.

Essendon Hill

Highlight (Segment) • Climb

Fast 40mph/65kph downhill when travelling northbound. Nice sweeping wide left turn, but careful of the right angle turn at the end. Can be easy to misjudge and go in too fast! Quiet road generally

Essendon Village Entrance

Highlight • Settlement

Very low traffic at most times of the day. Plenty of places to stop for a break and view, open fields and forested areas. Road can get narrow so choose …

Cumcum Hill Climb

Highlight (Segment) • Climb

Awful name for a road but the hill is quite steep

Quiet Tree-Lined Road off Great North Road
