After a relatively horrible week (I won't go into it, but stress levels were soaring), I finally got out this morning and relaxed a little. We woke up shortly after 9 and seeing as the sun was out and there was little sign that clouds and rain would interfere, we took the bikes out for a ride. Before we left we packed a flask of black coffee and a few apples and off we went.
After about 9km, we stopped - on a bridge over the river Trent, sat down and had a cup of coffee, watched the fields, the river and the people passing us on their bikes. There was no traffic as this is a cycle route with no car access. It was the perfect way to start the day. Although it was a little nippy, my hands didn't freeze off, and that is a great plus!
I'm hoping that we'll be able to do this every Saturday that has no rain when we wake up - it is such a peaceful way to start a day.
