No. Not at all. Lambton equates to "access all areas" in Newcastle. It's certainly better than if you had of said (say) Medowie!!

But from you prev post it sounds like you're at least half interested in a ride, so might as well hold out for decent weather. I don't mind riding in the rain, but I hate sitting in a rooster tail. Takes me a week to get the grit out from between my teeth.

I was thinking maybe meeting at Gateshead opposite the Toyota dealer at 7:30ish, then roll into town via Charlestown and Scenic Drive. A bit of a hilly route, but that can always change to a flat roll along Glebe Rd and Darby Street if required!
