6.71 Miles. Boldon - Nissan - West Pastures. Only one vintage 1947 pensioner, which I suspect may be the situation in the future. Dry and reasonably bright February morning, a cold wind from the South East. My first cycling outing since October, I was rather surprised that I managed to maintain a 10mph average speed. No video.

Saturday, 4th March 2024 12.69 miles. Waterpump CL - Badingham - Bruisyard -Framlington - Waterpump CL.   Our first bicycle ride for some months. A quiet start, around Badingham Village, then on to Framlington, much of it on a section of NCN1. A pleasant lunch in Framlington, at what appears to be Avery popular bakers shop come cafe. A little "essential" shopping (milk, and, an easy ready meal for this evening), before we take the "short" route back to the WaterpumpCL, mostly via the B1120. A final stop for refreshments at The White Horse, Badingham. I notice, for some reason, almost every pub is called The White Horse!
