Wheelers Burrow Bridge Blast

This weeks ride was designed by Paul Stone and was a little longer than normal but the cold crisp and sunny weather made it one of the most enjoyable. We started with the Grand Pier warm up ride and carried on out of Weston and on to Brent Knoll. From there we cut across the A38 towards Mark. Then it was right to Woolavington and over to Bridgwater. Next we headed to Othery then around The Mump at Burrow Bridge. Finally it was homeward bound across the levels back on to the A38/A370 then Home. This weeks ride covered 71 miles climbing 1400 ft and averaged 16.1 mph. A big thanks to Paul, Andy, Ben, Pete, Andy, Ben, Paul, Jason and Duncan. Hope to see all again next sunday!

Wheelers Bristol Breezer

  A good challenging route by Ben today and not just because of the 25 mph winds. The ride took us out through  St Georges onto the A370 then left past Brockley Court. Then we rode through Nailsea and Wraxall onto Failand. This took us around Ashton Court and across The Clifton Suspension Bridge dropping down to Hotwells and Spike Island over to Long Ashton and along the leafy Festival Way cycle path.Our next challenge was up Brockley Coombe and down the A38 past the airport. Finally turning right at the Churchill lights to Banwell and home. This weeks ride covered 55 miles climbing 2600 ft with an average speed of 14.2 mph. A big thanks to Ben, Duncan, Jason, Andy, Paul and Dan. Hope to see you all next week.
