Trough of Bowland 2014
« on: July 11, 2014, 04:59:54 AM »
Not been around for a while bad year up to now, can only get better.

Trough of Bowland 4 hours altogether funny how riding A and B roads and some without numbers no neck ache no numb bum jump on a motorway for a couple of hrs and my backside is killing me.





Time for a rest.



And a balanced diet.  :p







Watch the birdie.  :wink1

Not much time to react to things like birds, even at moderate speeds.
Love the rolling hills.  Reminds me of driving through the Lakeland region.
For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott

Great to see you out and about in such countryside Keith :thumb

These sort of years do get better gradually.
