The NSW regional centre of Mudgee will morph into road and gravel cycling central for the 2023 Mudgee Classic Gran Fondo and debut ‘Dirty Mudgee’ gravel cycling event.
Bicycling Australia’s 16th major Gran Fondo cycling event and the third for Mudgee, riders from Sydney, greater New South Wales, and around Australia will be making their way to the Mid West for the April 29-30 gravel & road extravaganza.
With gravel cycling booming in popularity, and the Mudgee region offering endless kilometres of sensational mixed-surface cycling, the 2023 Mudgee Classic becomes a weekend-long event with the Dirty Mudgee being held on Saturday, April 29.
Why Mudgee and the Mid-West? Other than the 55km gravel fondo plus the 175km Maxi, 125km Challenge, 65km Rouleurs and 35km Social Classic, the region’s wineries, boutique brewers, cafes, restaurants, hotels and tourism hot spots are absolutely world-class.

James Yaffa, Publisher of Bicycling Australia and Founder of The Classics, said organisers and riders were thrilled to be heading back in Mudgee and the NSW Mid-West and particularly excited to be tackling the region’s gravel.
“After the previous popularity and success of the Mudgee Classics, we are thrilled to be expanding the event to include the Dirty Mudgee Gravel Fondo on the Saturday, plus showcase the best of the Mid-West with the Maxi, Challenge, Rouleur & Social Classic courses,” he said.
“Participants from previous Mudgee Classics have reinforced just how special the region is and how it offers some of the State’s best all-round cycling,” he continued. “Not just a road cycling destination, Mudgee offers phenomenal gravel opportunities and we’re sure the debut Dirty Mudgee will be a huge hit for riders wanting more.”
