Sunday, 28th August 2022 7.68  Miles. Boldon Colliery - East Boldon - West Boldon.     An early morning ride, so, only one vintage 1947 pensioner. Cool, dry and still, at 12c, borderline for an extra layer. My monthly target of 150 miles/month is looking doubtful, only 122.9miles done, leaving 27.1 to do, only 3 days to do it in. Wednesday, 31st August 2022 10.77 Miles. Haydon Bridge - Fourstones - Haydon Bridge. Two vintage 1947 Pensioners. AKASO EK7000 Camera. Cloudy and cool with slight breeze from the East. This was undulating with a capital "U"! Lots of fun downhill stretches, but, for every downhill stretch, there is an UP! Included a short section of NCN72 (on quiet road). Friday, 2nd September 2022 14.40 Miles. Haydon Bridge - Bardon Mill - Henshaw. Two vintage 1947 Pensioners. AKASO EK7000 Camera.    Sunny and warm, 20c, a breeze, from the East.We first follow a signed trail, but, that becomes an unrideable. So, plan B, follow the 'old road' through Haydon B
