Cycling Photo Challenge - Entries and Chat

[summerdays]

I've had a quick rethink and I'm going to try to grab another entrance that I passed recently. Just not the ones in the centre of Bristol... So maybe more to come!

@summerdays you got most of the ones I was hoping to do. I think I may have to stay in Bath and get looking out for Georgian ones however it's raining and as I am leave I am staying on the sofa today.

Rain is finished here so your excuse is about to disappear shortly

When does this competition end? Has Potsy won yet?



Just asking

His picture of the lake is lovely, however, @potsy still has time to enter a photo that meets the rules.

It's not going to rain all the time between now and Sunday night.

Why is that there? Is there a river there or is it purely decorative? (Not sure whether to call it a bridge or what?) and why is the Tarmac different, or is it to signify an entrance? (There seem to be some spaced out grasses in the distance).

It's a little bridge on a causeway over a small lake, to enter a subdivision near me. The small part that has concrete molded in a cobble shape is the actual bridge part, although we still have a good many brick paved streets here in town, and one factory delivery entrance with cobbles.(Beer Nuts)

I'm not a fan of cobbles, one of my previous work places was down a cobbled street and I have to admit to riding on the pavement sometimes to avoid them. They look pretty, but just not to ride on! There are a number of streets which are still cobbled in the centre of Bristol.

I made an effort to get out after baking profiteroles and found this:

The Pound and it apparently had a lock up around the back which was for putting stray animals in.

I've not been out on many leisure rides of late so here's one from the commute this morning:

The gatehouse for Attingham Park. Better watch your head on that low arch.

I came across this today as I was exploring some different paths around Heaton Park today. It says on it that it was the colonnade for the original town hall and was moved to the park in 1912 when the lake was dug.

Shame it's not yesterday and I could have fooled you all with my winning entry.
It's got to be the grandest entrance to a boating lake ever!

I'm not sure you took that recently.

 

[Gravity Aided]

It takes me a long time to engrave something like that.

Nice to see what it looked like and in the original setting.

 

[Scoosh]

It takes me a long time to engrave develop the plates and print something like that.

FTFY …

When does this challenge end? I've next week off work, so I hopefully will have a few opportunities to produce some mediocre entries
