Newcastle Overnight 2021 (20th Nov 21:00)

Postby LateStarter » Fri Nov 12, 2021 5:24 pm

After a COVID holiday in 2020 Newcastle Overnight has returned to the calendar on Saturday 20th November for a ninth edition starting at 9pm at Observatory Hill (south end of Sydney Harbour Bridge), a nice 175 km overnight ride to Newcastle with your friends via Gosford and along the coast.

285 riders registered already with a week still to go!

I haven't really done enough kms in the last few months but hope the shear enthusiasm of the crowd will carry me to Newcastle (again) this year.

Just had a skim of the website. Looks like a blast! All the best with it....

Looking forward to some overnight summer rides here in the West too

Having missed this event the last four years (2017/2018 due to injury, 2019 due to being away, and 2020 was cancelled), I have signed on for this one.
It should be a blast. Up until I was injured I had done it three times. This time I am riding up there, then riding home via gravel (Yarramalong Valley, then Buckketty to St Albans). Will be 420km by the time I get home.

This is the video of the ride I made the last time I rode it
