Cycle path on the route of the old Strawberry Line
smb posted a gallery image in Members Albums - Index Page
From the album: Out and about in Somerset
A lovely path for walks and cycling has been constructed on what used to be the track bed of the old Strawberry Line in North Somerset. Here, you can just about make out the platform of the long abandoned Congresby Station, hidden among the undergrowth of brambles, ivy and beautiful wild summertime flowers. The Strawberry Line Trail currently runs from Yatton to Cheddar, mostly following the route of the old Strawberry Line Railway. There is an ongoing campaign to get the trail extended all the way to Shepton Mallet, via Wells is Somerset: Here you go...You can sign the petition, if you want! http://www.thestrawberryline.org.uk/index.php -

Well, it's not exactly a new bike. I think it's around 15 years old? It was in very poor condition and it wasn't exactly cheap when I got it. I then had to spend a lot more money getting it road-worthy... It was worth it, though. New bikes are in very short supply these days as people are shying away from public transport... Anyway, the bike rides well now and I am very pleased with it. And it's great to be able to get out into some of the beautiful Somerset countryside while the summer lasts! The photo shows my bike parked-up against a glorious old bench in a hidden (secret!) viewing spot along the old Strawberry Line cycle route and footpath.
