Neuss

Neuss sits on the Rhine's left bank in North Rhine-Westphalia, flat terrain suited to road cycling rather than trail running. The city anchors several regional brevets and randonnées—the Büttger Brevet (200km) and 44. Büttgener Herbst-RTF (111km) draw cyclists through the Lower Rhine's gently rolling agricultural landscape. The Rhine towpath offers predictable flat running, but the real cycling action heads south toward the Bergisches Land hills or into the Ruhr valley's older industrial routes.
