      Swinley Forest

      June 28, 2022 in England ⋅ ⛅ 19 °C

      Unser erster Biketrip im Swinley Forest.
      Okay, wo sind hier die Berge, naja egal wird schon. Dann fahren dir doch erst mal die Blaue Line. Man war das ein Reinfall…. es ging nur einen kleinen Teil bergauf, der Rest war eher eben und ging kreuz und quer irgendwie durch den Wald. Es war einfach super anstrengend, da man super viel pedalieren musste. Unten wieder angekommen dachten wir uns so, die rote Line wird bestimmt besser.
      Naja, viel besser war die auch nicht… nur ein kleines Stück, da konnte man dann mal wirklich bergab fahren 😅

      Nachdem wir dann komplett erledigt am Van ankamen sind wir dann zum nächsten „Bikepark“ gefahren und haben dort auf einem Waldparkplatz übernachtet.

    • Day 37

      First day in the UK

      June 26, 2023 in England ⋅ ☁️ 22 °C

      My flight arrived on time and it was pretty smooth sailing through immigration. I had to help an American couple as they had never used an egate at the airport and were actually getting so angry at the machine... She had her passport the wrong way around... I grabbed my suitcase and went to the train station. Of course the train I wanted was cancelled so I had to change trains during London peak hour. That was slightly annoying with a big bag but finally I got to Kate! It was so good to see her and we chatted for a bit after she dropped me to her and Brooklans house but then she had to go to work. I did some washing, watched some TV then went for a walk to the local park. It was a beautiful lake area. I sat and read for a bit then decided to go to the pub to try and stay awake. I had a beer but ended up coming back for a quick 10 minute nap before realising I had to keep moving. So I walked to the grocery store for a browse. I got back and Kate and Brooklan were home, we went to watch Brooklan play futsal then came home for dinner.
      It is so nice being back with both of them, we chatted all night and finally it was bedtime!

    • Day 38

      Bracknell Day out

      June 27, 2023 in England ⋅ ☁️ 22 °C

      Today I woke up and said goodbye to Kate and Brooklan as they went to work. I decided to get moving and went for a run to the local park. Got lost multiple times as google maps gave very poor directions, definitely have some suggestions for that app. Anyway, got back and decided to walk to the shopping centre. I was nice to see all my favourite shops again especially Primark which has ridiculously cheap clothes. I resisted as I have no space in my bags but I really wanted to buy some stuff. I ended up having a Gregg's sausage roll for lunch which is a British staple. I then went and saw the Flash because Toni and Tony have not stopped talking about how good it is. It was a good movie, good plot and had a bit of everything.
      I walked back to Kate's awaiting her arrival and we then went to her favourite pub, where Brooklan also works from time to time. It was massive, with this great outdoor area too. We had a pint and a meal which was delicious. It was so nice to chat with her about life and everything. Ive missed our daily chats about anything and everything. We went to pick up Brooklan from the train station and then just chilled that evening. I set an alarm to try get Taylor Swift tickets but only stayed awake for 20 minutes before falling back to sleep.
