You can ride from your house and back.
Bristol > Chepstow > Wye Valley Walk> Symonds Yat East > Ross on Wye> Herefordshire trail West> Haye on Wye > Offas Dyke path south > Chepstow > Bristol.
symonds yat in particular is lush. most of the valley is beautiful. lots of camping on these trails too, although some of it will be slow going as some of the trails are steep.
Could call your trip 'Wye not?'
Or you could head west on the trails when you reach Haye on Wye, then take the coast north. Change of scenery, and you can jump on a (circuitous) train back round via north wales if need be, or ride as far as Manc/Liverpool (which is a nice ride) from Porthmadog and get the train from there. Might be a bit ambitious though.

I don't have 10 days but I was planning to get Friday 29/04 off (as Monday 02/05 is BH) and do the Kings Alfred Way (anticlockwise are the suggestions) on 3days (ish). MTB and wild camping too.
Based on Brum.
Apparently, user @moocher can be of the match too :D
Okay, I've got 10 days off work at the end of April. I'm Bristol based and keen to stick to public transport for getting to/from wherever I'm going. What bikepacking trip would you do with this time? Current candidates:
I'll be taking my Surly Troll, so light MTB and wild camping are the order of the day.
