The route is not explainable here, but do cycle to the coast (we cycled from Bath to near Clevedon and then from there we almost cycled along the coast (not exactly but the route you will get if you are close to the coats is fairly flat). Do go with a buddy. |

I am not based in Bath but do a few weeks work in Bath ever so often and this is where my mountain bike is stored as well. Being a crazy out door South african I have to get out and cycle to keep my sanity. and this country is so geared for us cyclists As its not safe in my home country to do these things on my own I need to know why you say "take a buddy". Tks Carol F |

So we went through lots of country roads, and if you are planning to do it you should do it during the daylight. You better avoid main roads there, as they are full of massive lorries and it annoys you. Drop me a line so I tell you more about the route: nata199@yahoo.co.uk Cheers, |

Toilets come in a variety of shapes and sizes, and you’ll want to make sure you find one that fits your space. Consider the size and shape of the room, taking measurements if needed, to make sure you choose the right size. https://toiletroomguide.com/best-composting-toilet/ |
