Default Wales ride out 30th (This Sat)

Evening all,

In another thread a few of us were on about going for a ride this saturday. Just wondered if anyone is still up for this, assuming the weather aint too bad.

If people are up for it then we just need a route and i think one was suggested before which looked pretty good. Will get the link now and paste it into this thread. Otherwise open to any suggestions for a route. Since i'm a newbie dont know many decent bike routes.

Let the posting commence

There's one i made but i don't think it's long enough for a days ride. Perhaps a couple of hours with lunch at the end.

Looks good to me, we can stop in Caerleon and have a few drinks (cokes) in one of the pubs along the river

I added in a trip along the A48 as it's a good route to chepstow and the bellhanger (Spoons) in chepstow is great. Free car parking too. Only problem is you keep lapping over usk and chepstow.

Looks like a random TT course, ha ha

IIRC most of the pubs in Cheppers are small, thats why I was thinking Caerleon might be better, as the pub I was thinking of had a big car park, perfect for loads of bikes...

bell hanger in chepstow has a carpark behind with 10 parking spaces for bikes (free spaces) Although we can go along the A48, loop back along magor/underwood/caerleon and have lunch at the ampethreate with chips or beers in pub.

I must admit I have not been in Chepstow in a while, but, where the hell is this pub?

Well, I am happy with what anyone else wants, I just wanna ride

not sure about what to do with the leader situation. When me craig and tim went out on sat just gone it was just a stick together kind of thing and make sure we were altogether at junctions/roundabouts. I guess it depends on numbers and if anyone is confident doing a proper leader system. Happy with a pub anywhere lol Caerleon is nice in the sun

My comment was more in reference to the shape not the length of the route...
