Wickes to Blaenavon Big Pit

NP20 5GN

Join us in the Wicks/Aldi car park, ready to set off at 10am after a short bike check.

We will follow the cycle paths and canal tow path to Pontypool and then on to Blaenavon where we will look for a safe place to stop for a cuppa.

This is a 30 mile route with lots of short sharp hills on the way out and some lovely downhill on the way back.

Suitable for electric bicycles

Please bring a bike lock if you have one

For all rides please ensure that your brakes are functional and that your wheels are turning freely, tyres should be firm enough that you can't dimple them with your thumb.

To ensure everyone's safety we will do a quick bike check before we set off
