Some moments from Dean’s Pit Ponies Audax ….
the low key, friendly start;
admiring the skill of the trike riders on the narrow paths and cambers;
crossing the Infinity Bridge (to Infinity and beyond?);
a distant view of the Transporter bridge across the nature reserve;
bowling along the big road to Seaton Carew with a howling tailwind; weird distant structures that turned out to be a group of masts at the wind turbine factory;
Seaton Carew, its monumental loo, and the seaside;
miles and miles of clarty rail paths (though drier than they could have been!);
getting slightly lost after a Garmin fritz, relief on relocating!;
a few Millenium Milesposts;
the lovely lanes from Aislaby;
the final rail trail in the dark - glad to have good lights, the Garmin running on fumes;
the buzz at the finish, with some good grub too;
the stamped brevet card and realising it was my first Audax of the 2023/4 season.
Many thanks to Dean and his helpers for a grand day out.
