A visitor to the area takes the trouble to write to the local press about our new bike path:
Midsomer Norton is the place to visit
We visited relatives in the Radstock area over the Easter weekend and used part of the new (and as yet unfinished) cycle route to visit the Railway Museum in Silver Street.
What an excellent experience for both young and old!
Afterwards we cycled into Midsomer Norton for lunch and stopped off at the playground near the leisure centre on the way back.
Almost certainly we would not have done any of these things had it not been for the new cycle route.
When it is finished the route will be a great asset to the town. It will provide a wonderful traffic-free and stress-free link between the Railway Museum and the museum at Radstock and out on to the wider world (Bath, Bradford on Avon, Frome) via the Colliers Way.
Midsomer Norton is becoming a place to visit!

I've said it before. And I'll say it again. And again. Until those doubters finally get the message:
BUILD IT AND THEY WILL COME.

Hi,
I'm glad to hear your cycle paths are generating a buzz, this country needs to reduce its dependance on the car and cycling is such a fantastic way to enjoy the surroundings! I'd certainly like to get on my bike abit more in London but to be honest, I'm awfully scared of the traffic, I know how badly I drive at times, I can't imagine being outside facing all the other bad drivers!
Have you ever come across this site before? www.bikester.co.uk
Maybe they deserve a mention?
Yours,
Emily
