LEJOG Day 7 - Cheddar to Thornbury

Started the day with a climb up through Cheddar Gorge on the southern side of the Mendip hills. The road winds through for 4.2km with a couple of 16% steep gradients before it tapers into a gentle climb. Certainly a sure way to wake up the legs first thing in the morning.

Interesting rock formations and wild goats grazing alongside the road.

Traversed through the outskirts of Bristol on a number of cycle ways, before heading back into the quiet lanes into the county of Gloucestershire and our rest day destination of Thornbury.
