    Wolverhampton born Andy Tennant who recently was part of the Men's Pursuit Team that included Sir Bradley Wiggins will ride the Newport Nocturne Cycle Race tomorrow night. Graham Briggs recently won the Milk Race in Nottingham has also confirmed entry. It looks like it is a race the pros are taking very seriously. See the full rider list at

    Oh - that's Newport near Stafford then, not S Wales.

    The better one.
    The best one is in South Wales, though - it's in Pembs.
  • Good luck with it - very impressed this keeps building - hope the weather is kind

    Apparently many years ago a rider did turn up in Newport in South Wales and was baffled when there was nobody there.

    It's amazing that a small town like Newport gets such a big crowd for an event like this.

    So much love for this event in the area.
