| A fantastic 65mile road ride which follows the best part of stage 2 of the 2007 Tour of Britain stage. If taken as a fast paced road ride, fits it's 'difficult' description quite well. |

| 1 Start at car park in Holford, riding up through village past hotel into Holford Combe. Follow any of the trails criss-crossing bottom of the combe. When combe splits, stay right and climb obvious track out of woods and onto top of moor. Turn right onto wide ridge track and continue straight on, ignoring any turns.
2After about 1km, turn right onto initially indistinct singletrack, which leads into Somerton Combe. Descend to obvious junction with other trail, then turn left and double back up Slaughterhouse Combe, but bearing right to take trail up Lady’s Edge.
3 At the top of the climb, ride past Bicknoller Post and continue straight on, descending past stunted trees on initially indistinct grassy trail into top of Weacombe Combe. Descend to junction with bridleway at bottom of woodland and turn right, skirting lower edge of woods before dropping onto road. Turn right on road and then right again after 500m, climbing on road and then track to car park.
4 Continue straight on up main track then turn left after around 1km as gradient levels off. Climb briefly then descend, looking out for Smith’s Combe marker post after about 600m on right. Turn right here and descend into combe, ending at signpost by stream crossing.
5 Climb out of combe on obvious very steep singletrack climb to right, then follow bridleway along moorland edge until it descends into woodland, crosses stream and climbs steeply again. Take right turn here, continuing to climb back up onto moor. After 800m turn left, then right at crossroads to climb briefly to a viewpoint overlooking the Severn. Trail veers right, dropping into Hodder’s Combe. Once in combe heads left and follow the obvious track back to car park.
