Stopped under the big tree in Sheet, East Hampshire, to have a read of a book I treated myself to. Hooked after the first page!

A few from today's ride. First one seems to be the usual two wheel transport in this hill sorry mountain top village. Second is a top the steep descent, third is a steep route through the village and fourth is where I took my old girl for a paddle in my secret Ardeche river.

Aaaaaah! I didn't think. I had a tube of Trebor Extra Strong mints in my pocket that would have blown their fetlocks off. (whatever a fetlock is)

When I had horses I had one that loved Trebor Extra Strong mints! One of my others did not and if you gave him one he'd spit it out right at your face!!

She looks like a bike owned by someone who likes cycling, rather than owning the latest, greatest and most mind-bogglingly expensive.

Ha ha, maybe not if I was a rich man! Seriously, she does everything I need a bike to do even if she is a bit heavy to get over these holiday hills. That said It would do no harm for me to lose a few more pounds.

Rode through Irthlingborough today, notice a number of flyers attached to most of the trees, a closer look showed they were memorials to fallen soldiers in WW1.

Rather poignant as we'd stopped at Vimy Ridge on our way home from Jura.

I visited the Ardeche 30-odd years ago. Stunning cycling country

Passed this on the way home today.

noticed this info board on my route from Gaydon to Milton Keynes yesterday.

I hadn't noticed the date to be honest. 545 years to the day since the battle!

in an aside, I had been chatting to my daughters recently about road and place names, and realised that the road that this image was taken on was called welsh lane - maybe something to do with some of the soldiers that took part in the battle under the Earl of Pembroke, the lane runs for a good 10 miles towards Syresham. finding these links are part of what I like about cycling.

anyway, here it is.

At Monsal Head this morning, fabulous view.
