We will head out from the velodrome and take a spin through the woods to loop around to the river. We will then go up the east side of the river to pick up the traffic free route to Caerleon. After our rest stop we will retrace our route for a while and then head to Malpas to pick up the canal back into Newport. We will then finish by coming back along the west side of the river and back to the velodrome.

A fairly gentle ride along the river from the velodrome to Caerleon and back with a twist on the way there and back to add a bit of variety.

This route is a mix of traffic free sections and some quieter roads. No big hills either.

We will stop in Caerleon for refreshments either at the Village bakery and cafe or the Green.

Please wear a helmet and bring along some money and a lock for the cafe. Also a spare tube is also worth carrying with you.

First-timers welcome!
