Day 12 - Bristol to Bridgwater
Distance: 42.44 mi Elevation: 1278 ft Average speed: 11.6mph https://www.strava.com/activities/2457618198 Today was another "rest" day - a shorter trip and one with much less uphill overall, for which our tired legs were grateful after yesterday's exploits! It's also a part of the world we're really familiar with, as I was born in Bridgwater (well, technically Taunton, but we lived in Bridgwater), and grew up in Bristol, while Dad is from around Bridgwater originally. Leaving Cribbs Causeway, we headed through Henbury and Westbury (including up a decent hill far earlier than our legs were ready for it!). There was no let up as we then headed across the Clifton Downs towards yet another bridge. Strangely, this one was open - looks like they didn't get the memo from the Forth, Mersey and Severn bridges! Stopped for the now obligatory bridge selfie - promised Dad there wouldn't be (m)any left. Clifton Suspension bridge Climbing to the top of
