Strawberry Line Update

I've stayed on this site numerous times and the site is as you expect from a Club site - immaculate facilities and friendly wardens. The main reason for my review is to advise anyone thinking of cycling the Strawberry Line this Easter. The route from the site soon diverts you around the reservoir which I missed as I think it's poorly signposted. The section between Axbridge to Winscombe which includes the Shute Shelve Tunnel is closed due to Bristol Water laying a new water pipe and a diversion is in place. Once you leave Axbridge and cross the A38 the diversion takes you on a Bridleway, across a muddy field and a road which was inches deep in water. It's certainly not suitable for a road bike. I broke a spoke on the bridleway section so it's best to walk this bit. I think it would be better to just cycle the route from Winscombe to Yatton parking at either end. Here's a link to the route: http://www.bristolwater.co.uk/wp/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/Strawberry-Line-Diversion.pdf
