That is detailed! There's only one Rising Sun in Newport (well it's the first one Google spews up anyway), address is 1 Cefn Road and it's the only pub around as far as I know, apart from the one further towards Risca, virtually in Pontymister, which is probably as rough as a badger's arse.

Yup, the other decent pub is at Castell-Y-Bwch where the Rack Raid finishes and that has a tremendous 360 degree view, about 2 miles up the lanes towards Cwmbran.

Yes, I was thinking that the Rising Sun would be ideal for drinkies. You actually see it over the wall and across the road about 250m from the finish line........although it is a little further to drive round to it. It's on the B4591, about 2/3 of a mile North of J27........or it's where High Cross Rd becomes Cefn Rd........or if you look at a map, its where the canal nearly touches the main road.

It is snowing here, but tiny little flakes... I hope it stops, as I have a bike ride planned this afternoon!
