It gets steep from the right handed that is Breach Barton Lane. Plenty steep enough for me thanks!

If I had not stopped for the cattle grid I think I would have managed this climb but it was hard to get moving once I had stopped. Next time I'll cycle across the grid which turned out to be full of dirt and therefore ok to cycle across.

Nice road onto the Quantock Hills from Over Stowey in the east towards Crowcombe gate and the car park on the top of the Quantocks. It's quite a tough climb but the views are great.

The Quantock Hills is an Area of Outstanding natural Beauty (AONB) in northern Somerset. Easily accessible by bike from the mainline train station of Bridgewater or from the M5. The hills form a long ridgeline heading inland from Williton and the Bristol Channel to Taunton inland. There are great mountain biking and gravel bike options as well as some great views and steep hills for road bikes.

The railway makes a fun challenge ride. Friends or family members can ride the train and you can race on the bike there and back with an ice cream or chips on the sea front in the middle.

Bishops Lydeard station is the southern terminus of the West Somerset heritage railway. The railway runs from here north to the coast near Watchet and then along the coast to Minehead. There are regular steam and heritage diesel trains running throughout the year but check the website for timings. https://www.west-somerset-railway.co.uk/

Sea views from Doniford road between Watchet and West Quantoxhead. The highpoint is 88m and you can see across the Bristol Channel towards Cardiff in South Wales.
