Corner to Corner, Day 4: Radstock to North Petherton

https://www.cycling4charity.org.uk Our day benefitted from leaving Radstock early and breakfasting in Wells, normally the first break stop. Learnt from LeJog graduate Richard at Avalon Marshes Centre - thank you, Richard. Enriched by many on route.

Looking back to Midsommer Norton, and how far we had come already. On route to Wells.
Southview, on Bennets Lane, Binegar. A beautiful building I enjoy seeing.

Brett coming off the Long Drove , a long straight road over peat flats which would move up and down if a heavy vehicle traversed it. Gorgeous.
