Your ride today....

[Dave 123]

An evening ride timed to perfection to get the setting sun.

I then headed east on the coast road…

Just as I saw the moon a hare popped into the lane, saw me and went back the way it came. He sat in the field and we watched the moon rising together.

Just coming into Battisborough I put my front light on…. And it instantly turned off!

The 6 miles home holding my phone ready to put the torch on for approaching cars. It was seamless…… kind of!

I nearly inhaled a couple of bats that came very close to my face for a good look. They soon flew off!

14.5 spectacular miles. Some illuminated, some illuminating!

Needed cheering up today so did my favourite ride from Dowlais to Brecon via Talybont. 45 miles through lovely hills and valleys, plus a bimble along the canal path.

I lived fairly near Dowlais up until 2020, but was hardly cycling then. Only really got back into with Covid, and by that time we had moved South.

I haven't been that far North on the bike since. That's a fair old climb you'll have done before coming down to the Talybont Reservoir in your first photo.
