Ride out - 01/02/09! - SV650.org

I was thinking we could meet up at chew valley lake area!

Great roads and scenery to be had here. Dundry offers views over whole of bristol and great opportunities for pics. Lakeside parking means good options for pics also. Theres a cafe at Chew Valley lake, so a good stop for those who need refreshments after coming a bit further afield. Lets send the roar of SV's through the south of bristol areas!

Chew valley lake is often a stop off for Subaru 'drive' outs. Lets give em a rivalling roar!

Time wise: 12pm meet up time. Allow the riders who have come from further afield to stop for a bit, grab some munchables and we set out for 1pm. Im open to suggestions for route taking. Dundry is a must stop for pics though.

The list begins here:

Chew Valley lake. South of bristol area.

Type in Bishop Sutton and zoom out - youll see the lake. If you need help finding it i can pick you up.

Hmm, this is a possibility, not too far away for me.

I shall defo be on this one, when i lived at my parents (garden backs onto dundry hills) I used to go running up round dundry....good roads IIRC around the lake and all the way out to blagden...

Hovis or anyone else that is coming from that way, I live close to Junction 17 M5, so if it would help I can meet you and we ride onto Chew Valley Lake

Phaelok, wheres the meeting point? that long road that the lake goes under with the parking on either side?

20-01-09, 11:05 AM

The meeting place will be one of two places.

The one youre talking about - that bridge over the lake with parking. Good photo opportunity for group there.

Or the actual cafe by the lake, lots of parking space there and good views also. Probably more ideal as people will need a spot of munching and possibly a tinkle before continuing on the ride.

When i get some time this evening, ill take some screenshots of the meeting place on google maps or something, and show you exactly where we are meeting. Be nice to get a good few riders on this one
