Description

Back for 2023 a 57k Severn Bridge Series BRONZE GRIMPEUR AAA rated event.||Includes free finishers' rectangular route map patch for all riders.
Starting from Severn View Services, AUST - FREE PARKING LOCALLY.

A quick spin into Wales, crossing the Old Severn Bridge before you start the first of two climbs.

A picturesque descent into Tintern follows.

Along the River Wye with a few coffee stop options & then climb to St. Briavels with the tough Sandy Lane section before passing St. Briavels Castle for a well-earned Coffee Stop at the Pavilion.

Next, ride the beautiful lane sections to Netherend and as you then head back to Chepstow you'll see views of the River Severn & Chepstow Castle.

Finally back over the Old Severn Bridge to finish at the Boars Head Pub in Aust.

With its 1080m of climbing the route packs a mini punch.

Mostly quiet lanes and B-roads with easy navigation.
