There's a lovely little bit of road for you. Running between the A361 and the A4, forming the third side of a triangle with the two where they meet at Beckhampton, I'd guess it's not as much as 5 miles long, but it's a lovely bit of road. A bit of a crest (enough to make your stomach go 'wheeeeyup!' in a car, and just great on a bike), big long straight, through the middle of a beautiful golf course, a twisty, downhill avenued section, and then two of the most perfect, mildly cambered knee down corners you've ever seen.
I think I may well be practising there to get my knee down, for the most part.
