Cheddar Gorge
Details
This ride heads out along the Festival Way and then on to Chew Valley. It then passes over the Mendips and into Cheddar down the gorge on The Cliffs road.
The starting point is Nova Scotia Place by the benches. I'll be on a black and red Btwin bike with a red bag. We'll set off at 10:00am, please arrive in good time and ready to ride.
There are a couple of big climbs, but we'll take them really slowly!
We will stop for a pub lunch in the village of Cheddar.
The round trip will be around 76km/46m. Total climbing is 1200m/4000ft.

Please respect we ride in a group and the ride leader has to make decisions on behalf of the group, these need to be followed.
The ride leader will stop for catch-ups, at junctions and hills. Please do not overtake the leader this can lead to people getting lost.
Your bike needs to be recently ridden and in good order. You should bring a spare inner tube for your bike. This is to avoid holding up the rest of the group. There is likely to be someone on the ride who can help mend a puncture, although this is not guaranteed.
