So I have had a good think and as you all know I am partial to a drop of cider so I am going down this route and the subject is going to be public houses. Photos need to include your bike and a pub it's that simple. Closing date will be midnight 17th June so I can decide on a winner before going to eroica on the Friday. Feet, birds, food and any other off subject posts are also expected. Happy snapping one and all and now you have an excuse to visit the pub, not that a few of you need an excuse.

Just been watching Unsprung (spring watch) and they had on a bicycling birder, and they were showing photos taken by viewers whilst out on their bikes.... Didn't spot any of our birds such as the various rare egrets we have identified...

Our friend Chris Mills is the one they were talking about on there... he did the original unbeaten birding/cycling thing. He worked with Mr Hop for years and then they started a business together. Then he went off and started up Norfolk Birding which he's doing really well with

Crap. Guess at lest I don't have to drink anything at one. Other than a very occasional whisky or taste of my husband's dark ales, I don't drink or even look for pubs! But I think I know one or two that I may be fit enough to cycle to by the 17th! July you said? Good. That will work just fine.

I can feel a long ride coming on this weekend.

It may only be short in distance but it will be long in research

You only need to photograph them, not sample something from each one .... We'll leave that to @BigAl68 hic

dont we get extra point for enthusiasim if we do though ?

 

[Scoosh]

Presumably the photos are permitted/ intended/ required to be a bit … err … blurred - as in vision, wobbly camera-holding, unsteady gait etc ?

We're staying at our friends' pub in sunny Suffolk but I don't have my bike with me but I am going to try and borrow one.
