Bere Cider
Taunton
10:30 – 15:30
A ride out to Bere Cider taking in Aller Drove. Riders should be confident with traffic on A&B roads. Not intending to book a table as usually plenty of room. Just two climbs of note: 13 Bends and the hill up to Othery. Note that it is a 10:30 start to allow the morning temperature to increase albeit a cool day. Komoot route link will open up in Chrome.
