Long after the Romans had their way in Europe and present day UK, the Mayans of Central American built massive tributes to their gods with unrivaled precision, without the use of the iron tools for cutting or the wheel for moving such large stones. On a recent trip to the Yucatan Peninsula, I believe I may have made a discovery that may disprove that theory...

What looks to be a 1500 year old bike I found in shed around back!

Back to flat land, i.e. southern Finland, the trip to Lapland is over.

The Camel Trail is 18 miles of disused railway line ending in Padstow ,Cornwall. Mainly tarmac, so nothing exciting but enjoyable anyway. Got the proverbial four seasons in a day which is why I got warned off going onto Bodmin Moor by a local. Good advice.

Good job you are a mild mannered individual Bill (when that local told you what to do ) ..you could have taken a right hump..

I’m sure he had my best interests at heart, Hodge. Local knowledge is needed and I’ve got no desire to become the latest hyperthermic muppet to star in one of those helicopter rescue TV shows

Making the most of nice days before the weather turns.

 

[Binhill1]

Weather better than the forecast fresh and chilly. Far cry from the weekend my face is pealing from the weekend and I had plenty Factor 50 on so there you go. Old favourites are the best

Cardinham Woods, Cornwall. Ridiculously slippy in the wet. Pass me my brown trousers

I don't mind a quiet road ride. Indian summer up my way if forecast runs true. The mind works in strange ways. The anchor brought back a quote from a long time ago. I started sea at 15 an apprentice on a trawler . An old deckhand said to me , you see that Anchor there drag it to the country side and when someone says what's that you know your far enough away from this ?????? Job.

Call that an anchor?

 

[billwarwick]
