Today was too good an opportunity to miss, as we have been having some terrible weather, also I am due for a cold and chest infection from my other half. Tomorrow is my 49th birthday and I am feeling brilliant. I have been doing mindfulness, I have organised my life, I am doing abs training and most of all enjoying getting out and about whenever I can. In my title "If you don't go out, you don't seee things' My mother hates me going off on my own, but I find it liberating, if you thought something bad is going to happen every time you leave the house, well, you wouldn't leave the house.
Everyone is speeding around like loonies in their cars, oh what you miss when you are sat in a car. I like to go as slow as possible, a saunter, still putting effort into cycling too. You can hear the birds sing, the newly hatched great tit chicks tweeting in dry stone walls, newly formed waterfalls emerging from nowhere after all the rain; its amazing when you go at a slower pace you conserve energy, I managed to get my ebike ( no electric ) up some hefty hills and with a heavy lithium battery on it can be challenging. There were loads of people out today, dog walkers, ramblers cyclists, one old lady wearing all the bright luminous green and orange jacket, helmet, gloves, you couldn't miss her. I always take my camera out wherever I go.. a tornado jet flew over the greenway, then I saw a buzzard circling. I went and sat in a little local garden area and had a breather. Back home I spotted Most Haunted events.. then back up the greenway the way I had come. Home for a nice cuppa tea and a dog biscuit. For my spaniel of course.
Call this a cycle lane ... Wakefield council.. tut..
