Railway and other cycle paths

[David Martin]

I discovered this one today. A nice pootle and the cutting is rock with lots of ferns and bits. Very pleasant. From where I turned off the surface gets a bit stonier and muddier with a few roots but is still quite rideable, best on a MTB though a tourer should cope.

The Forfar audaxes last weekend went under the bridge at 1:15.

The 'join the dots' cycle path. Through a wooded area but it has solar powered lights along the edge of the path.. Freaky...

They have a few cyclepaths like that in Cambridgeshire.

I'm sure I'm not the only person who pretends they're going down the runway, about to take off....

How do they stop the neds (or in Reg's case, students) nicking them?

The ones round Cambridge are actually buried in the pavement/tarmac itself.

Cycle paths are rather heavy andfirmly attached to the ground. Though I did complain to the council when the contractors relaying th epath dug it up and left no warning signs. That was an interesting experience at night. I informed them that someone had stolen the cyclepath.

And do you pretend that you're an aeroplane on the runway?

Child!

My parents have those in their back garden. Next time I'm in it when it's dark, I shall run up and down making aeroplane noises

Was I the only one to notice the similarity to the opening bit of film and the Evil Dead films?
