PH jersey spotted Somerset.
Discussion

'twas me! We have been staying in Hermitage Road in Upton for a weeks break, and I was getting one final ride in before heading home! I do remember seeing you and giving a quick nod and a wave, in fact I only saw two other pedal-pushers while I was out and they were both within about 100 yds of each other coming into Somerton!
I also got a toot and a wave from a Skyline going across Cockrod, assume it was a fellow PH-er and not someone telling me to get off the road!!

I have to say you have some fantastic roads in Somerset and generally speaking they are in much better condition than the ones I usually ride in the Thames Valley. Some really fantastic hills, I did Cheddar up and Bristol Hill down yesterday - in the torrential rain! What a fantastic climb up through the Gorge, sadly I got stuck in traffic coming down Bristol Hill into Wells so could not make the most of it - but we will be back!
Also, have to say we ate in as many of the local pubs etc as we could and found everyone very friendly and welcoming - really nice weeks break, just a shame we had to go home today!
Well glad you enjoyed Somerset and all it has to offer!
Have to admit I have not been riding that long so trying to find new routes every time, may have to steal your route but I have a feeling it will be slower than your time.
We do have some nice hills, sure many more than I can handle at the moment, yes things do seam to be in good condition so I'm not one to complain. Think a route around cheddar will be in for next weekend, have heard a lot about it so might give it a go.
