Well yeah, I'd also say give some of the audax events a try - there are plenty starting from Bristol and nearby - they can be great fun and are a good way of discovering new routes, seeing how far you can go, etc, all in a fairly controlled environment yet with an ethos of self-sufficiency; no one's going to mend your punctures or hand up gels, you can mend them yourself and find a cafe. But some people do take them mighty seriously!
Not that serious is necessarily bad, but it's meant to be fun (even if only in retrospect when it's a wet January on the Mendips). Some people get a bit obsessive and forget there are other ways to ride a bike. Doesn't sound like that's the case here though.
