Strammy on a bike!

 
The kids and I went for a bike ride today.
 
Here's the route (H = Home) - I marked it out to show just how lucky we now are in Worcester to have so many designated cycle lanes (blue arrows). We crossed the river Severn over both foot/cycle bridges, however for the sake of safety we had to push the bikes over the road bridge.
 

 
 
 
It took a leisurely couple of hours to do the round trip, and no nasty hills to overcome.
 
 
 

Take pictures next time Steve! Inquiring minds want to know.

Hey, wait a minute...  The topic title says "Strammy on a bike!" yet all I see is some map with graffiti on it.  That's very deceiving if you ask me.  Reminds me of this picture:

 
Alex, LOL! To accommodate my extensive rump, my bike is fitted with a saddle the size of a small armchair that is filled with royal jelly
 
"No pics or it didn't happen" eh Bill Here's a shot I took from the opposite bank (also a designated cycle/footpath) a few years back showing our beautiful 12^th century Cathedral - the chap in the red top is walking along the path on that side:
 

 
 
Eric, until I started cycling again recently (in a vain effort to get a bit fitter) I didn't realise quite how well the cyclists and pedestrians were being looked after around here! Nice to see my exorbitant Council Tax is being spent wisely on something other than your enormous broadband speed
 
Good one Craig
 
It's great fun Janet, the cycle lanes are good but now the kids are a bit older, I'm confident to take them onto the roads if needs be. On that route we probably start off somewhere near the highest point and cycling along the river banks is the lowest, so I guess we have to climb back up somewhere along the line! But it's all gradual, so it's not too bad.
 
 
 

"No pics or it didn't happen"


Not that Steve, I've never seen any pictures of that part of the world. To me it's fascinating. All I get to see are piroques and alligators. Oh, and snakes. I ran over a water mocassin yesterday. 

Straummy,

You're going to have to take me to that Cathedral whilst I'm on the  2012 Bapu Armageddon Tour of the UK and France.

LOL did you read the title of that pic? "blonde chick with nice..."

Awesome Cathedral Strummy

That seems like beautiful country and town to ride through.


best,
mike

Oh ya that's sure is one majestic structure, that rock shanty to the left of it in the center photo looks like it seen some history too. Great pics Strummy. Sure is nicer to look at than the castles we have around here.

 Bless your heart for understanding.
