Llanrumney to Newport Riverfront, challenging, hilly out via lanes, flat back via reens

A relatively short but hilly (total climb for ride about 1040 feet) ride out through the Llanrumney area to climb up though the lanes and drop down into Bassaleg, continuing on uphill to Fourteen locks and then along to Newport Riverfront. We will will have a coffee stop either on the Riverfront or at Tredegar House. The return trip is via route 88 along quiet roads and country paths (fine grit) to St Mellons and back up hill to the start.

A lovely circular route, with the first half being quite hilly, and with great views, and the second half almost flat. We will stop at the top of the bigger hills for a quick breather!

We will be riding mainly on quiet suburban roads and undulating country lanes, with a short stretch on grit/gravel path along the reen.

We will have a cafe stop either in Newport or at Tredegar House.

Please bring a bike lock and also a spare inner tube if you have one, and your cycle helmet. Also some money for the cafe stop.

We never leave anyone behind
