My route home tonight featured a spooky plum tunnel!

It is late at night, dark and illuminated only by head torch. A country footpath runs between, and beneath, plum trees. In torchlight, it looks like a mine shaft! The trees are well set with fruit, though less bountiful than is the norm. The exceptionally dry summer is evident in the dusty earth, and parched undergrowth.

Oooh baby, do you know what that’s worth? They say Devon is a place on earth!

A view across the beach, to the sea. The fore is dominated by the red sand typical of south Devon, a cockle shel, the inside painted with flowers, lies on the sand. In the distance Ness Head rises from the sea.

Solar eclipse? We’re ready!

Inside, it was like a museum piece.

Anyone else explore a creepy, abandoned, Cold War bunker this weekend?

Why would anyone choose to cycle in a gym? Most of us have green space nearby, often closer the the gym! Go explore it.

A view across open pasture, flood plains for the nearby river. The setting sun is low, orange and still incredibly hot.

A view across a field of corn, the setting sun, in a clear sky, is nearly touching the horizon. To the right a rough dirt footpath that tonight serves as a cycle path, propelling the rider towards the setting sun.

Upgraded the beast to bigly rubber this weekend. Wish I’d done it sooner! Easy suspension upgrade, rides great👌 #newTyreDay #bikeLife #fairlight #gravel #bicycle #steelIsReal

The fork of gravel bike, fitted with Manything cages and Hope wheels sporting new Continental Race King tyres; 29x2.2”.

This is the biggest tyre it’s possible to fit on this bike, a Fairlight Secan 3.0.

Happy with the progress so far, looking forward to the grand finale!

And, 30 seconds ago, this. Though I do feel bad as I separated a group, so they had to dash off in opposite directions. There was much sproinking

And got to watch this instead.

It’s just about cool enough to walk to the supermarket, at 20:40! It’s a lovely evening to be fair, if a little melty!

May has been a good month, for me, for #cycling. It’s been wonderful!! What an adventure. #gravel #singletrack #steelisreal #adventures

Got some new charcoal, the good shit. It smells great!

Large logs of charcoal stacked in a cardboard box. No shards, no dust, just logs.

Today was a good day. #bikesky #cycling #steelisreal

A pearlescent blue steel gravel bike, with a single pannier leans against a bench overlooking a wetland habitat, with a small lake surrounded by reed bed. The skies are mostly clear blue, with a handful of small cumulus visible in the distance, beyond the lake, just above the horizon.

There’s worse commutes I think. Afternoon rush hour and zero traffic on one of the fastest routes out of the city! Perfect. 👌 #bikesky #spring #gravel #adventure #commuting
