Enjoyed that, Graeme!  The business about "coming back along the same route", I think of as "if you do things in both directions, there is twice as much world to view."

Nicely done sir!

Good read. Just think of the folk that have gone up those lanes before you.

What a lovely read. I recognised a lot of the places described, having spent most of my childhood school holidays in a cottage at the top end of Tryfar, the adjoining road to Twtil. On the occasions I took a bike with me, it was a road bike with less than ideal gearing. Those lanes in the hills behind Harlech were a favourite, apart from the frequency of gates to be negotiated.

Very good. I also enjoyed your psalm for cyclists.

Thank you - that has been tweaked a few times as my theology has developed. I mainly use it to stop me shouting at close-pass motorists - angry Vicar isn't a good look.

There is a biblical precedent ...
