Coolamon Loop
https://ridewithgps.com/routes/40857717
This road ride involves some climbing and would be best suited to experienced road riders who are comfortable with a ride around the 100 km distance mark. The ride is mainly on quiet country roads with the exception of the Coolamon Road section out to Downside, which may be a little busy at times.
The half way point in this ride is the township of Coolamon which is well worth a visit and where you will find a number of refreshment options in the main street.
This ride starts and finishes at the Northshore Café in North Wagga.

Gelston Park
https://ridewithgps.com/routes/40860566
A short road ride for those looking for a bit of hill climbing practice. Serious hill climbers may need to do a bit of Everesting on Gelston Park to slake hill climbing thirst.
Take care on the Holbrook Road on the way out and back, as this road can be busy at times.
