After having touring bikes for over a year, we finally found the time, weather and an interesting enough route to actually use them for touring. A quick jaunt over to Holbeach, Boston (national cycle network chaos), a campsite next to the National Bubblecar Museum (closed while we were there overnight) and back via ice cream to Woolsthorpe Manor (Newton’s birthplace) and home. We found that Jo is faster on the monotonous Fens, Dave is faster up any incline. We’ll definitely be out again once we have some more ideas of where to go.

Cake stop, at Greatford just East of the East Coast Main Line

Pode Hole: Fens, Canals, Wind and no hills

This (Fosdyke Bridge) is the closest we got to the sea – it is tidal and it has boats
