- Kellands Plant Sales Salmon Parade TA6 5JY
- Overall Duration On a long ride, it’s sometimes good to have a little break in the middle, or maybe a catch up at the beginning or end to keep it sociable. This means that the overall ride duration may be longer than the actual cycling time.
- 2 hours 45 mins (2 hours 5 mins cycling)
- Bike Type You probably don’t want to drag your road bike across bumpy trails. Maybe you want to make the most of the suspension on your mountain bike. This helps you match your ride to your bike.

Sky Ride Local in Bridgwater
If you’re fairly confident on your bike and ready to broaden your cycling horizons, our Steady rides are ideal. At a comfortable pace, and possibly with some modest hills along the way, rides take place on mainly quiet roads with plenty of sights along the way. Rides are between 6 and 20 miles long, at a moderate pace of between 7 and 10 miles an hour.
Starting from Kellands Plant Sales we will head out on the riverside path and follow the SUSTRANS route 3/33 before we join up with some of the quiet local roads on our way out towards Chedzoy. When we reach Chedzoy we will start on a loop that will take in Bawdrip, Cossington and Chilton Polden before dropping back down to the levels and returning via Sutton Mallet to retrace the route back into Bridgwater. We get stunning views across to the Mendips and the Levels on this ride, so why not join us and take your cycling up a notch.
