... why do we do this riding thing then? I mean, today I had to drag my poor weary body out for a 15 mile trundle, only to be faced with this sort of thing



I mean... *Peacocks* ??

Then there's all this...

















Ahem - yes, that is a chicken...



Can you believe it, I am pretty sure I even saw a *car* once, here's a pic of it, a bit blurry 'cos it was so far away... I've enlarged it a bit so maybe someone can actually confirm the sighting for me?





Look - that's a hill there... see? Right there where the road drops a bit - I mean, come *on*... this is Norfolk








Actually you know, I cannot tell a lie - I *know* why I do it

Arthur


**edit** Here's the route

Don't know why you bother with scenery like that. How tedious is that. No dodging traffic, no abuse from cabbies and white van men, all that peace and quiet. Just glad I had to work in the blazing sun and not get out on the bike. Oh Bum!!

Looks boring... hate all that green... euuurgh!! What's the point in having steering if you haven't got a few people or vehicles to ride around? Totally redundant bell. The horrible smell of outdoors... at least in the city you can smell the food and the exhausts.. really keeps you motivated.

...erm...



...oh...

What're all those square things ?


Arthur

There may be a support group and a helpline.

Ah.. Norfolk....

Great skies in Norfolk....


And it seems no cars! Not sure how you managed that. Loved teh chook.


Mary

what have you done to the sky? is it enhanced in some way?
ours seems to be a permenant grey black with lots of wet stuff dropping from it!!

Sorry, this *is* Norfolk and it never rains here.. Oh no.



"Rain" is *way* too small a word for it

Looking at the two sets of photos and then thinking about the recent proposal to abandon the North and live in London or its suburbs..............
