Newport velodrome to Cardiff garden centre - extended route

We will head out of the velodrome towards the river and cycle up the side of it through Newport to pick up the canal at Malpas. We will then head west and along Brickyard Lane to get to Western Avenue. From here we briefly pass through Tredegar park before heading down Forge Lane and past Tredegar House to pick up the cycle path that will take us all the way to the garden centre.
After our rest, we come back a different route for much of the way. We will head along Greenlane Reen to pickup St. Brides road for a short distance before turning back to pick up the cycle path towards Tredegar House again. Then we turn the opposite direction and head back to the velodrome using NCN route 4.

The route is a mix of canal towpaths, cycle paths and quiet lanes

We will be stopping at the garden centre in St. Mellons for refreshments

Please wear a helmet and bring some money and a lock for the café stop. It is also a good idea to carry a spare tube just in case

We never leave anyone behind
