Black Down Mountain Bike Ride

A short anti clockwise loop on the Mendip Hills taking in some of the best single track. Parking at the top

end of Burrington Combe also means there is surprisingly little climbing to do apart from the lo

ose and rocky climb up onto Black Down from Rowberrow Warren.

Chew Valley Lake Bike Ride

Sometimes you don't have to go far to find stunning scenery. People often overlook what's on their doorstep and in our case it was the Chew Valley Lake on a sunny Sunday morning.

Starting from Stanton Drew, an anticlockwise circuit of Chew Valley Lake. Built in 1950 to provide drinking water for Bristol,is the fifth largest artificial lake in the UK and the largest in the South West. Click on the image above to vi
