  • UCI Track Cycling Nations Cup Newport – 22 - 25 April 2021
    Round # 1 – UCI Track Cycling Nations Cup Newport – 22 - 25 April 2021 GENERAL INFORMATION Newport is a vibrant, multi-cultural city steeped in a rich industrial heritage, where traditional industries sit alongside new electronics and financial service sectors. At the gateway of Wales, surrounded by stunning scenery and a growing international profile Newport may surprise you. Newport’s history dates back to a Celtic settlement 2000 years ago and the city's location at the mouth of the River Usk has attracted visitors for centuries. Caerleon, just a few miles from Newport, was also the site of a fortress of the 2nd (Augustan) Roman legion from the first century AD. The Normans settled in Newport and built a castle beside the river Usk in the 14th century, the remains of which you can see today. The discovery of the remains of a sea-going vessel in 2002 gives evidence of Newport as a centre of industry and trade in the medieval period. During the 19th century industrial revolution Newport expanded rapidly from a small seaport town to one of the most important places in the country for coal export and steel production and the town became known for its accessible modern docks. Newport is also home to the Newport Transporter Bridge, one of around 10 that remain is use throughout the world and one of only two operational transporter bridges in the UK. Global leaders in technology, manufacturing, distribution, financial services and public sector organisations are attracted to the city’s superb location. Over 2.69 million people visit the city annually and events are a key part of Newport having successfully delivered large global events including the Ryder Cup in 2010 and NATO summit in 2014.

It also encourages individuals to try different types of events, that they may not otherwise have considered. ⇒ Each event will be ranked by one of the following methods: • Finishing Position / Time • Age-Grade • Participation Points - 75 points are awarded to each individual that takes part ⇒ Each event will then be scored in accordance with the rankings (i.e. Points are allocated from 150 for first place, down to 1 for 150th place [Men / Ladies are scored separately] - If there are more than 150 participants, each of the individuals ranked below 150 will score 1 point each). ⇒ For the Points League, individuals will be split by the following age categories (They remain in the age category in

Much has of growth and success been achieved in recent years – the completion and opening of Friars Walk retail and leisure centre in 2015 has perhaps been the best example of the • Move Newport up the city’s transformation. ‘value chain’ Newport’s location, sense of identity and growing confidence means the foundations are now in place to fulfil the city’s economic potential. The city has a proud and varied history and we want to build a future which respects this legacy whilst recognising that future economic growth will be founded on very different skills. We are home to many successful and growing businesses and the city is projected to grow significantly over the next 10 years. Our key aim over that period is to create the conditions which will stimulate further investment. This means we need to build our social capital as well as maintaining our focus on physical regeneration. Ultimately we want to make Newport a city where everyone can achieve their potential. The abolition of the Severn Bridge tolls have removed a critical barrier to investment and we now stand on the verge of an important new era for the city.
