Luton is where the Rivers Slurry and Pustule meet to flow reluctantly on to the Sewage Estuary

Re the Bristol bridges, running over the Avonmouth (M5) bridge is a good experience and it's amazing how high it is - you don't really realise that when crossing in a vehicle.

However ... if you were to omit it (#37) and also for expediency #38, then tweak the route so as to get from the west side of the Suspension Bridge back down to the Cumberland Basin, I reckon you would take 20k off the distance. That would leave 43 bridges in a revised circuit of around 25k.

Sever Bridges Challenge. All the way from the M4 bridge back to the source. That can't be too far, right?
