Waypoint introductions and full write-ups
1. Windsor
Planning note
Windsor sits at 0 km, early in the day. Next is Singleton.
2. Singleton
Singleton lies in the Hunter Valley on the New England Highway, a coal town in the middle of wine country, with the Hunter River looping through flat green fields on its way to Newcastle. It is not a pretty town in a conventional sense, but it is useful, and for riders finishing the Putty Road, it is the first proper service centre after a long run through the sandstone bush.
