Stopped in on Ed and Sue in Cambridge. Old friends from Canoeing days. V brief visit but couldn't miss them out!
Just after I left a rainbow appeared. First one of the trip.

The lads left Clevedon Rd at 1000ish. Had a merry ride to Warmley Cafe for lunch, waited for the rain to stop and parted company. The three wended their way back. I wended my way on. Cyclepath to YateBaca lagi

Crossed the M5 numerous times yesterday and here it is to greet me just after breakfast (with oat milk on my cereals)
Noisy, smelly beast that it is
Pengembara Bet your oat milk came down that horrid road. Days gone by you could have bought milk freshly squeezed from the oats by the trusty oatmilkmaid.

Dry day. Hooray.
Rode near the M5 for much of the journey today. But started the day with the River Severn. The ancient Britons called it The Severn Sea. It was more gentle today as I rode throughBaca lagi

Found this little vehicle whilst passing the Imperial War Museum North. Apparently they are very popular in parts of Moss Side. I remember driving through there once by accident and being terrifiedBaca lagi

Out through those dark mills and cobbled streets of Lancashire mill towns. How many millions of granite sets must have been shaped to pave those streets and alleys. Move just off the main roads andBaca lagi
Pengembara it was a pleasure, rain stopped after two tunnels and sun came out!

Glad to be of help on your way - you'll have to find your own beans today. 😊 [Paul Gilson]
