They must be bonkers, bonkers; I mean we could hardly walk up them so how and why anyone would even try go down them on a bike is bonkers.
Back to Tamar Trails and the super exciting track down in amongst Bedford United Mine. What an amazing place, now a peaceful wood and then a wild, noisy landscape. Down to the Tamar to walk along where the purple toothwort has gone and the ransoms have flowered. To find a nice spot for a cuppa where the remains of a teapot were found and someone saw a kingfisher. Up to the main track which would gently have taken us up - but NO onto the cycle tracks to charge up the hills, over the jumps and bridges - really ace. Eventually to pop out near the top with little idea where. The swing was found and enjoyed then down into the tips and round the tramway back to the cars as the nearly full milky moon shone.
On to the Copper Penny where Elsie's arrival was celebrated and someone mentioned their birthday tomorrow,
