Youtube decided I’d like a video called “Why are there no bridges in East London” by Jay Foreman
It was interesting, I thought McGoo might like it ..

That's not gathered clouds of enthusiasm, so consider the idea dropped, and the field open for a new proposal.

We still have the actual Bristol option...what we need is a Bristolian to devise /recce something other than the full Challenge

Agree.

I only heard about the Avonmouth bridge having a cycle track recently and when I expressed doubts about the amount of pollution there, someone said actually it was fine. But that is sure to be worse on a summer Saturday, and LD pointed out.

If I do it myself I can choose a day with an east wind but we can't plan that in advance.

But if we really want bridges galore and not too many miles, I can recommend Taunton.
