I plan to. No thanks to le rhume et le mal de gorge, I did nowhere near as much cycling there as planned, so I have unfinished business.
Pretty much a metaphor for life... but at least it's good to have something to aim for... :smile:

The goal of my longest ride since my concussion last October: the col de la Bataille near Léoncel on the Vercors plateau. 85 miles done in the day, and 7500ft of climbing. So far, the brain hasn't protested. Fingers crossed...

Public Bridleway & 'Wakefield Wheel'
From Station Road, to Altofts Hall Road
Altofts



An almost (to me anyway) colour infra-red
It just seems to seep colour

Can't find any pictures of it, but this tree would be approximately where the 'A' of 'Altofts' is, on the little OS map

I was stood here, on the bridleway, just south of the (shown) beck/stream

There's a nice track runs off to the right on the treeline on that sloping hillside.
We had to venture down it when there a few years ago and the road was closed just beyond where your photo was taken.
The track eventually brings you back to the road a few miles further round.

Indeed - there are some amazing tracks and paths around here - if I had a mountain bike I'd probably be exploring the tracks around here, and I ought to do more walking... but the roads ain't bad either.
