Bikes and Bridges

I don't miss the winter, but I do miss the colors this time of year - Long ago, and far away ........ sigh

Not a great shot but kept forgetting to get pictures and it is the very first bridge on the shortest loop I do. Doesn't look like a bridge as I'd have to climb the fence to get the rest in and too much effort as it would still not look great but it does cross a river.

A couple of pictures crossing the dry Rio Almanzora taken on a recent evening ride.

Today's ride took us over some of my favourite bridges
Biblins suspension footbridge


Monmouth's fortified Bridge

Redbrook's old railway bridge.

I've posted all these bridges before, but they are so great, I'm posting them again

Ride on comrades

One of my favourites today.

From a hardpack little singletrack line between 2 hedgerows and back in to another leaf covered back way, the ancient Icknield Way is (rightly) carried over both the M and A11 roads on its very own bridge.

This is the southbound view (with my bike in the way).

Different approach, nine bridges crossed in ~10km, with another four visible.

Our poor little town, almost all the shops we use have been flooded.
The fortified Bridge we were on a couple of weeks ago
Was almost the only dry land!
Given the water got up to the parapet, and it's 700 years old, we are lucky it survived.
