Mudgee Classic

Overview

The Mudgee Classic is part of The Classics, a national series of cycling events that take the best parts of the celebrated hobby and scaling it up to a level that makes it a bit above your standard Sunday morning ride.

Set amongst the beautiful regional wine country of Mudgee, 268 kilometres north of Sydney, this yearly iteration is one weekend only and split into five different courses to cater to all experience levels.

On Saturday, May 4, those looking for a cycling ride equivalent to 'the scenic route' will take to the Dirty Mudgee gravel ride, a 55-kilometre loop trail of rough-yet-scenic trails and smooth rural lanes and country roads across 700 metres of elevation.

Then on Sunday, May 5, riders can challenge themselves across the Social Classic (35 kilometres), Roulers Classic (65 kilometres), Challenge Classic (120 kilometres) or Maxi Classic (170 kilometres). These four courses cater to all levels, and offer a variety of difficulty and scenic value to make sure you've got some pretty pictures for your pedalling.
