I think that was one of the most bonkers bike rides I've ever been on.
Ditto! That was, er...interesting.
To think I'd cleaned my bike properly for the first time in ages only a few hours before, too...
I did walk a bit, but a lot less than I thought I would, given that I won't normally even ride on bridleways. At least normal COR will seem tame in the future! I can't comprehend how Deano could do that on a
completely inappropriate bike, and nor could some of the walkers.
Tiermat very kindly let me have the last space on the train (IMHO there was plenty of space in the bike section for two more, but the guard wasn't having it!), thus meaning I didn't have to ride back to York in the middle of the night with no map or GPS, which I momentarily considered (for some reason I didn't even think of taxi - had no idea they took bikes). Thanks Tiermat, and sorry you had to get a taxi.
I know for next time to book a space on the 23.19, not the 22.25.
