Has anyone got any routes/tips for Somerset? Particularly around the Taunton area?

.

Slow reply- but have a few, what length/ hills? (if not too late)

Anyone got any gravelish routes in Norfolk round Cromer way? Got the platypus bikepacking odyssey already.

I’m heading down to Camelford, Cornwall next week and was planning on taking my gravel bike. Any tips, routes or suggestions?

The Camel trail runs right through Camelford so is on the list but I’ve also seen an image online copied below where a loop has been created that returns via Rock. If anyone has a gpx of this it would be great.

Anyone have any favourite Epping Forest routes? Looking at you @giofox

Ehm.. I have collections of them. Looking for something specific?

These are some I plotted this year for club rides, generally a good mix of single tracks and some main path. https://ridewithgps.com/collections/1846437?privacy_code=KJo54XGvmmvmlTDe

These are @BareNecessities routes:

Great, cheers. I've adapted Dirtbags #7 for a Stratford start https://ridewithgps.com/routes/44178529

Nice, there are definitely a few trails that are hard to find/follow if someone has not shown them to you before, but you can manage/cut them out easily - let me know if you'd like me to point them out

Just in case anyone else fancies visiting all 160 MacDonald's in Greater London some bloke on Twitter has mapped out a route for you and visited them all. It's 466km long.

Planning a very leisurely 2 day trip with my dad around High Weald - 35 miles a day, overnight in Rye and mostly on roads. I've adapted a local club route but have I missed anything particularly beautiful/anything obvious to avoid?

Winchelsea is worth a visit, a very attractive village/town.

Do you plan to visit anything enroute, i.e. Sissinghurst or Great Dixter (both worth a visit in my opinion)?

Any Sussex gravel routes about? Preferably going near haywards heath

Haven’t you got anything longer? Lol

You have to ride the full route or it doesn't count

Looks a pleasant, if undulating route, my parents live close by and most of it looks fairly pleasant.

Just off route is the super-instagrammable St Thomas Beckett Church just the other side of the military canal. Andyp is right, Winchelsea is probably worth a visit.

In the other direction out of Rye is Tillingham Wines if you fancy some slightly pricey English wine and food. Which would also help pay my salary :) as they are a customer. The view there is very good.

Have you got these two in a gpx? I don’t have a paid rwgps so can’t edit

Sure

Thank you 🤝

Thanks for the comments!

@andyp - we'll definitely be stopping en route, will add Winchealsea, Sissinghurst and Great Dixter to the list!

@pastry_bot - will definitely give the church a visit, and great shout with Tillingham, will see if I can swing us by!

Other than the WKW, the Bissoe trail etc does anyone have any good Cornish gravel routes to share?

Near the St. Austell area there are some trails around the clay mines. I think they're referred to as the Cornish Alps - bit of info here https://www.claytrails.co.uk/routes

Hi all

Is there anything online where I can put in 10 addresses and get back an optimised cycling route? I tried Chat GPT but it cant handle maps.
