We went out for a cycle yesterday afternoon, and who should we meet, but a friend of ours, standing at a corner with a bunch of bananas and a cow bell! Strange you might think?! He was actually waiting for a couple of mutual friends who were cycling from Land's End to John O' Groats and were due to pass by here any minute - two out of 700+ cyclists. We were travelling the opposite way, so kept an eye out for them. I spotted Neil whizzing downhill as I slogged uphill, but his girlfriend must have been a good way behind him as we didn't see her. It's obviously a popular time of year for doing this cycle route.
A great welcome for the cyclists….funny to see your friend all ready with his welcome bell & bananas. Simple & sensible when you know what they are for but weird to see him standing there with those if you have no idea why!
Oh yes, it's a great time for bike trips. Unfortunately, yesterday I had a flat tire, it was the third time in a month. I think I have something with the rim. I have to have the bike serviced. Lovely shot and story.
