It’s official. The 2026 Mudgee Classic has reached capacity, with online registrations now exhausted ahead of our May 2–3 event weekend.
We’re thrilled to be welcoming over 3,000 riders to the Mudgee region, marking the 2026 event as one of our largest turnouts to date.
We caught up with Anthony Nguyen, Co-Founder of Pastries.cc, one of the biggest groups (60+ riders) attending this year to hear what’s drawing their crew back to Mudgee.
“The Cycling Classics events are always a highlight on our calendar, and this year we’re bringing an even bigger group to Mudgee, with many riders experiencing it for the first time. The addition of Dirty Mudgee is a huge draw, and plenty of our crew are turning it into a full weekend, enjoying everything the region has to offer.”
With riders travelling from across the country, the event is expected to once again deliver a strong influx of visitors to the region, supporting local businesses, accommodation providers and hospitality venues across the weekend.
From gravel backroads to rolling country lanes, the 2026 Mudgee Classic is set for a full house!

To everyone who’s secured their spot, we can’t wait to see you in Mudgee on May 2–3 for an unforgettable weekend of riding, community and country hospitality.
For those who missed out, we still want to hear from you.
