Hi Martin,

What area do live in and what sort of distance do you wish to cycle. I could look into some routes.

Hi roscco, I live in castle cary area o somerset but bike will fit in back of my car if needed to travel further distance. I currently ride approx 20 to 30 mile after work, if i finish work early enough to do so, i dont work weekends at all so im free to go out on bike most weekends. What area are you from and what distance do you usually cycle ? martin...

Hi Shorty,

Noticed that you live in Castle Cary. I will be cycling up to Pilton from Weymouth in a couple of days, I have never been in the area before and from looking at cycle route planner on this site am estimating that it will take me a good 5 hours, what do you think? I am going to Glastonbury festival, will I have to follow the main road from castle cary? or do you know of a quiet route?

Be grateful if you could let me know Dom

Hi shorty, im just south of the Wincanton area, due to work hours im generaly only cycling 30-40 miles once a week. Theres a route on this site i wouldnt mind giving a go:

Route can obviously adjusted or a 30 mile route early evenings (daylight permitting!) would be good as im not too far away, when the weather starts improving!
