I am going on a bike ride - and to use a cliché I don't know where I'm going or how long I'm going to be. I just fancy a bike ride.
I thought you'd all like to know that.
Well, yes
I'm afraid I wasn't that ambitious - I did end up in local Leicestershire village of Barwell and had a drink in the Cross Keys pub. Although there were a few looks when I walked in ! But still, that happens when I walk into any place.
Did the round trip of 11 miles in just over an hour. Not overly impressive but was a very refreshing ride.

To me 11 miles seems like quite a long way. I'd only be two miles out before I got to the pub... if I was 18... or could ride a bike...

Bloody hell that's quick! Barwell's actually about a 15 minute drive from where you are isn't it? Cross Keys pub is nice though, but I prefer the Red Lion in Burbage myself.Isonstine wrote:I'm afraid I wasn't that ambitious - I did end up in local Leicestershire village of Barwell and had a drink in the Cross Keys pub.
