Ken and Kathleen Cycling Diary

  Sunday, 24th April 2022 3.47 miles. A very short ride, into Ludham, St Catherine's , for one of the vintage 1947 Pensioners, church attendance.  The wind from the North East is even stronger, and colder today! I amuse myself with a few Church/Church Yard photographs, whilst waiting. Monday, 25th April 2022 8.92 Miles. Ludham Bridge - Horning - Ludham - Ludham Bridge. Dull and cloudy, even a brief shower of rain. Not a terribly successful outing. Route (from Cycle.travel) included a ferry at Horning, but, when we got there, ferry only runs at weekends at this time of year! Cobbled together a ride, taking in St Benedicts Church, and a shopping trip to. Ludham Village.  Wednesday, 27th April 2022 11.33 miles. Walsham-Le-Willows. Exploring the area around Barn Owl Meadow CL, looking for a shop (unsuccessfully). Cloudy and cool, 10C, but, calm. Only rear view video, because, I forgot to press record on the front view! Thursday, 28th April 2022 10.12 miles. Barn Owl Meadow - Ricking

  Wednesday, 20th April 2022 20.31 Miles. Ludham - Catfields - Stalham - Hinkling Broad - Potter Heigham - Ludham.   Sunny and mild, 14C, but, with a stiff cool breeze. One of the vintage 1947 pensioners has new padded knickers to try out, no complaints. Rest stop, Stalham. Lunch at 13 miles, and, still smiling, Hinkling Broad. Friday, 22nd April 2022 15.55 Miles. Ludham Bridge - Horning - Neatishead - Barton Turf - Hoveton - Horning - Ludham Bridge.  Sunny and mild (12C), but, with a brisk wind, (20mph) from the North East. Lunch stop at Neatishead (The White Horse, very nice). Rest stop/waiting for the White Horse to open. This is St Michaels and All Angels, Barton Turf, just beyond Neatishead.

  Sunday, 10th April 2022 16.28 Miles. Boldon Colliery - Jarrow - Washington Village - Boldon Colliery.  Sunny, with a slight breeze, from the West, 10C. Tuesday, 12th April 2022 10.62 Miles. Boldon Colliery - Whitburn - Boldon Colliery. Dull, cold (6c), with rain forecast, not a nice day! Intention was to do our South Shields Coast circuit, but, one of the vintage 1947 Pensioners was too cold. Thursday, 14th April 2022 19.86 Miles. Boldon Colliery - Whitburn - South Shields - Jarrow - Boldon Colliery.  Dull for most of the ride, but, calm and mild 12C. Tuesday's vintage 1947 pensioner, determined to "do it" today, so, we do the usual loop, including coffee at Minchella's Little Haven. Saturday, 16th April 2022 10.17 Miles. Boldon Colliery - Jarrow - Follingsby - Boldon Colliery. Dull, but, calm, cool 9C. Only a short cycle ride today, because one of the vintage 1947 pensioners needs her roots "doing".
