Cheltenham Day 5 - Biking

That was quite the adventure today.
Getting the bikes worked out well - in a locker near the train station and we had the locker # and code. Problem started with where to go. AllTrails app said there weren’t many biking trails nearby so I’d downloaded Komoot - not a good idea. We ended up going around in circles, which caused Peter to generate all the 4 letter words he knew in long continuous streams.
Zapping that app, I went back to AllTrails - fortunately I’d downloaded a trail to Leckhampton. We eventually found it, but turns out I’d downloaded a walking trail - definitely not meant for bikes as you’ll see in the pics of us pushing our bikes straight up a steep hill.
We eventually reached the top, got some good pics and were able to «  mountain bike » it back down through the rocks and tree roots. Miraculously we ended up back in Cheltenham near our place.
We paused at Moran’s a quaint pub near our place for sandwiches and beers - desperately needed. From here we headed back to the train station and took a lovely, scenic ride north to Pittville and around the lake. Soooo picturesque. We’d walked some of it yesterday. Did I mention it was 27C+.
Nice long shower & delish meal at home and we’re good to go for tomorrow.
I’ve been able to activate our Britrail pass for tomorrow - not easy but doable -
so we’ll be heading to Oxford. Here’s hoping all goes as plannedBaca lagi
