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
