hi, was just wondering if anyone knew any good A roads with lots of twistys around the Bristol area?

Any recomendations would be welcome

cheers!

Head from Bristol to Melksham, then Bath/Frome way, very good fun.

Other than that - north into Wales, only 160 miles to Aberyswyth in the middle waith stunning roads and views.

From Bristol, upto chew vally (watch out for the old bill around the lakes) then up to chedder gorge, down throu hitting the twisties, down to the A38 to weston Super MUD.

Cracking ride.

what cv piper said. apart from the bit about heading to wales - never a good idea

thanks for that, ill defiantly have a bash at that, ive always wanted to ride cheddar gorge as ive heard so much about it but didnt realise it was so close. I think that'll be the first ride

Tom, If ya want any company when you do chedder, give me a shout, been a long time since i did that route.

yeah sure mate, mores the merrier, i dont know when we'll be heading out, but im hoping to chat to the others guys tomorrow and ill drop you a PM when i know.

Some of my favourites, in no particular order:

A46 from M4 J18 to Slough
B4040 from The Cross Hands Hotel on the A46 to Malmesbury
A433 from Tetbury to Cirencester
A420 from Warmley to Chippenham

Further afield
A342 Devizes to Andover

Looks like we've got sunday sorted out then ;)

I've been through the gorge in a car, lovely twisties as long as you dont ride/drive into the back of somthing.
