Oct 31: Hello-Weenie Chaps

So yesterday Mrs B decided we should do a gentle 8.5 mile bike ride to loosen up my back.
I have not ridden a bike for years but I was happy to borrow my sons to gently peddle along the very flat Phoenix Trail from Princes Risborough to Thame‎.

From a distance I thought these figure may be witches (for Halloween) but as we got closer we saw they were 'wee' (small) rabbits. As I slowed and stopped to take a photo and Mrs B pulled up beside me, you can imagine how I felt as I forgot that my feet were in the peddle straps and I gracefully fell over, into Mrs B crashing us both to the floor. Oh how we laughed...

Once on the floor (and with a bad back) Mrs B kindly removed her bike from my head and my bike from between my legs, helping me to get up and amusing a couple of dog walkers.

We continued our ride and by the time I got back to the car, I could move at all.
Apparently is was 'A lovely ride'...
Love the whimsical rabbits, as well as the entertaining story.

At least your camera came to no harm but I bet you felt silly! Hope you have no after effects. Oh! And are you sure these are rabbits? They look like Kangaroos with antlers

Now that is a find - a great story. Hope you have shocked your back into recovery mode.

You always seem to find little folk/animals everywhere. I don't know how you do it. Your story made me laugh as I was imagining you all tangled up in the bikes. Hope your back and your saddle are not too sore today!

Ouch, I wouldn't recommend a bike ride for a sore back, hope you not too sore today. Weird and interesting find, makes me wonder why the rabbits are up there.

A lovely spot to riding a bike I am interest to know what are the little things on top of the poles

Hahahahaha. Wish Mrs B had grabbed your camera and recorded the bike tangle. I used to have peddle straps but soon got rid of those when I fell off too many times!!
