Got on my bike

Yes I got on the bike and off it again - often. I thought I should do a 14 mile round while the roads were corona quiet but phew it was too hilly. The last time I was on the south side of the valley was 35 years ago when I did the Alwinton Half Marathon, and i remembered a few crippling hills. I had to push my bike up this one.

Once I got to the north side I was met by a head wind and a lot more traffic. The roads here are narrow and lorries carrying huge loads of trees on the way to the sawmill come hurtling past too close.

However I got some new views and even saw a bastle but I wasn’t getting off to take its picture!
