Out And About.

Went on an evening bike ride to Stonehenge today, first time I've been there solely by bike for more than two years. 

Nice, good ride, nice view. Sadly, I don't think we have any 'Henges' in the US.  Someone should get some big boulders, Easter Island look alikes, and make a few.

Hehe, very cool! We do have Henges! Given how enamored we Americans are to our cars, it seems so appropriate to use cars in a US Henge.

Thanks, 63 mile in 5 hours, felt fine the next day too, so maybe there's hope.

We have a lot of not so cool henges around here, a farmer on the downs found one on his land, all of 50 ft across !  Though it is cool you can find archeaology like that starting within the first foot of soil, been there waiting for 4-5,000 years to be redisovered.

He also found and exacated an ancient flint mine, so now he's got a ruddy great big 60 ft  close to his farmhouse.

Wow, a 63 mile ride is a long haul, good for you.  Great exercise.     I sure couldn't do it.

Went for a ride into the heart of the forest earlier this evening, no one around just me, a few horses and a herd of fallow deer too close for me to stop for a photo.

Odd a national park with around 6-700,000 people within 15 miles of it's borders and abandoned to the wildlife and me. 

Maybe they're too wedded to the TV, screens and social media?

Indeed.

On my way back from the beach yesterday evening, I encountered a weasel in the road, brown foot long cute little thing, never seen one before.   


Might have been a stoat but I think those are noticeably bigger, often hard to judge the size of things cycling by on a large bike.

If you saw a stoat or a weasel "cycling by on a large bike", you may have inadvertently slipped into the world of the Wind in the Willows ...

Quite possibly so.

Protip: no matter how much he begs, do not let the Toad take your bike for a spin.

Once on one of my runs along nearby farm roads, I slipped into the world of Watership Down.

Were you:

- Kidnapped for breeding stock by fascist rabbits?

- Invited to stay by kindly strangers, who it turned out were merely hoping you would be eaten first by the farmer?

- Told enigmatic prophecies of impending doom?

Hmm, well, I spotted one desiccated hare corpse, and then a half mile later a dismembered hare head.
