Bicycling :

Bicycling on the quiet lanes of the Somerset Levels is great, but there are also some long off road cycle tracks: Bath to Bradford on Avon on the Two Tunnels Greenway, Radstock to Mells along the Colliers Way, or The Strawberry Line, the old railway that took Cheddar Strawberries to the city. Bikes can be hired in Bath, Bradford, Glastonbury and elsewhere. Serious off-roaders should contact Bike The Mendips.
