walking and cycling

16th April 26, Shilbottle 4pm

Nature reclaiming the rusty stump of an old lamp-post. Life is a powerful force.

16th April 26, Shilbottle - Alnwick - Alnmouth - Shilbottle, 10am

Cycling isn’t about pedalling, pedalling, pedalling. 

Especially on a breezy day like this, that’s the worst part. Cycling is about finding yourself somewhere beautiful and peaceful a few miles from home. It’s about relaxing for a while. Maybe it’s about cake and chatting if that’s your thing. 

Then, sure, there’s a bit more pedalling but not relentlessly. It’s not a race.



 16th April 26, Buston, 7am

A day off from walking the dog meant I could wander my own paths.
