For once this year, the sun shone as 11 cyclists made their way from the Choir Hall heading to Black Rock, before heading to Shirenewton and then Chepstow. With the Old Wye Bridge open again, it was decided to take-on the Castleford climb and make for the National Diving Centre at Tidenham for coffee and cakes. From there it was down the windy peninsular road to the Old Ferry Inn.  After a brief stop, the riders headed back for Chepstow and returned to Caldicot via Bulwark, Mathern and Crick. With over 1700 feet in climbing, it certainly warmed-up the riders up. One highlight was School Hill in Chepstow, although not long, certainly gets the heart pumping.

It was nice to welcome a new rider, Hayley Yates, I hope that you enjoyed the ride.
