More very enjoyable exploration of the hills round Llangollen and the Dee valley.

More cycle route research in Lincs and Notts.

Route research in and around Lincoln for a few days. A fine ride to Cleethorpes today, to the centre of the world, and back.

More fab cycle-route research round Calderdale. The Singing Ringing Tree is a moortop artwork outside Burnley. Its pipes turn the wind into a low moaning sound, much like me after the long climb up from the town.

I’m with Tim researching bike routes round Todmorden and Calderdale, and we had a fabulous day today cycling the moors around Hebden Bridge. We had four seasons in one day: winter, spring, wintry spring, and midwinter. Rochdale Canal has fabulous scenery, and you’ll keep stopping to admire the views and take pictures. And search for…

Researching a few London routes, and taking our bikes on the Emirates cable car over the Thames. Because we can. And because it makes sure we get the entire car to ourselves.

Just finished three excellent days of researching routes in West Wales around Dolgellau.

Final fabulous day of research in the northern Lakes.

Cycled to Skiddaw House, an extremely isolated hostel halfway up Skiddaw. Superb views from the top. No wifi, mobile signal or electricity… but there was a piano and guitar, and a wine list ranging from Viognier to Shiraz, so entertainment was not a problem.
