The route heads out of the International Sports village and joins the cycle path which will lead us alongside the river as we head north through Newport to reach the canal towpath. We will ride along here until we reach Brickyard Lane. Then it's along here and down Western Ave to get to the cycle path through Tredegar park. Finally we take the cycle path down the side of Forge Lane and along to reach Tredegar House.
After our stop we will head out west along the cycle path to create a little loop on the roads before picking up the cycle path no.4 that takes us back across Newport to the velodrome again.
This is not a particularly hard ride and the only climbing is as we head up the towpath and Brickyard Lane. The return leg is virtually flat.

My 100th ride as a Breeze champion! Let's celebrate by looping Newport and visiting Tredegar House.

The route uses predominantly cycle paths but there are a few sections on the road and along some quiet lanes

We will stop at Tredegar House café for refreshments.

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

We never leave anyone behind
