Around Franpton-on-Severn / Slimbridge has lots of v quiet lanes, and there’s the sharpness canal towpath also.

By Bristol-Bath have you included the Two tunnels section in Bath heading out to wellow?

Just logged in to recommend the Two Tunnels option - much more interesting than the Bristol/Bath Path - good pub in Mells and even better pizza garden in the summer. There's one dodgy bit entering Wellow when going under a railway bridge otherwise it's almost traffic free. Another option is to go via the Tuckers Grave/Slaughtered Lamb at Faulkland for a bit of local colour.
In the Slimbridge/Berkeley area the pubs at Purton and Littleton on Severn are both great and if you can make it to Severn Beach there's an (erratic) train to Bristol Temple Meads to get you home. It's a bit fiddly but you can also cross the bridge and head into Wales.
There's also circuit riding at Castle Combe as an alternative to Odd Down.

Looking for for minimal/no traffic road cycling suggestions to take my 8 year old who has a new road bike. So far doing Bristol-Bath cycle path, Odd down cycle track and Forest Dean loop none of which are in Glos so wondered if there is anywhere closer I'm missing...
