Meeting up with a mate in Bristol over Xmas for a ride & wondered if anyone could suggest a route.
Ideally somewhere within riding distance of the Emersons Green/Mangotsfield area so we can ride straight from his gaff to avoid driving (then we can enjoy a couple of 'refreshment' breaks along the way!!)

Cheers.

Just ride along the water to checkers in ham green and stay there....

Most of bristol is 'sh*te' at the mo due to that wet stuff that comes out of the sky.

Get in the car 45 mins from you is CC you can do a couple of laps and be back and in the pub before you know it.

If only ADH offered to do that for me! I live out in Emersons Green and would LOVE that sort of information. I could string you a few random joined-by-cycle-paths rides around there that are fairly pub-centric.

Cheers ADH - you got mail.

TooTall - cycle paths & pubs would probably fit the bill. Which pubs would you recommend?

I plan more research this weekend. I'll get back to you!

ADH promised me a guide around Bath, not Emersons Green! Don't believe anything he says - a slippery wee customer and no doubt. Nice hips tho.

Right you lot. I'll harvest the e-mails and start a bit of a NE Bristol mailing list. Pubs, paths, there must be trails linking them all.

Look out for the escapees from the remand centre!
There's some great little lanes around that area, I remember them well from my days in the TRF. I imagine most will be WELL muddy right now - have fun chaps! ๐Ÿ˜‰
