Bikepacking - Lithgow to Newnes

A two day, 100km bikepacking ride from Lithgow to Newnes (and back again) in the Blue Mountains via the Glow Worm Tunnel. I was treated to a 3 hour thunderstorm last night at Newnes, which caused all sorts of flooding and I had to change my day 2 route because of swollen rivers and washed out tracks. With 1500m gain over the 2 days (half of which was in a 3km stretch coming out of Wolgan Valley) it was definitely one of the most exhausting things I have done.

This was a great test of gear (and my body) for the riding section of my upcoming Summit to Sea 2021 expedition (in May) - https://summittosea.live
