Where are the hills?

By Bikes - Posted on 22 August 2009

I commute from Petersham to Parramatta each day - through Leichhardt, Five Dock, Concord, Olympic Park, over Silverwater Road.... BUT, there are hardly any hills! I go over a few little ones through Concord and one in Leichhardt (Marion St) but I need MORE! Does anyone know of some good ones (3 or so minutes to the top would be good) somewhere between the inner west and Parramatta?? It'd be great if they were without heaps of traffic or traffic lights - a little circuit would be ideal and it doesn't need to be on the route I currently use. I figure there must be some tucked away in Concord or surrounds but don't know where... Anyone have any ideas?
Cheers.
