Breeze

Wasn't snow but rain, 
Wasn't sun but wind,  
That woke me up. 
One* was so happy to feel morning breeze...

That day

Location: local lake
Time: 22.00 BST
Date: Tuesday

I would swear that I had posted shortly afterwards.  Never mind.  That day I wanted to do...
What I could have done to treat myself... No what?    I had wondered.  Then out of blue,  let's go swim!
It was an early night,  cycled around to keep warm and tuned into music to chill out and the same time observing.  Definitely only me around.  Found interesting  spot.  What a beauty.  Then quick and stealthy approach and I'm already in. What a fantastic feel cold water on your back.  OK lasted not for too long,  though.  Definitely,  I'll be back.  Meanwhile keep posting :-)

Another Place

Location: Crosby  Beach 

Time: afternoon 

Date:  01.11.2014 




While ago when cycled towards Lands End, I had a chance to navigate myself through The Beatles  city -  Liverpool.  Even stopped and sought that famous zebra crossing close to Abbey studios. Only to learn that  mentioned  zebra crossing is located back in the capitol. 


At that time  I was not aware of this project "Another Place"  located at the Crosby  Beach,  exactly one hundred of cast iron statues spread all over the beach and facing West. Then some time after,  I had watched criminal story,  where main character run on that beach and statues. At that given moment  I made myself a promise that I will run on that beach. 

Some time later,  an opportunity arose to drive a car.  Yes,  that's correct!  Me born cyclist  to drive.  Oh yes!  Driving skill is important.  Then of you go!  Me and close friend,  a cycling mate and personal  coach were ready to depart. 

We had managed to do Park Run,  find many geocache some of them as late as 2am. Which draw attention to a bartender from a local pub when two blokes in the middle of the night searched nearby hedge :-) 

That weekend I drove many,   many miles... 

At  the end,   somehow found myself protesting in the front of  Romanian embassy!. 

I have learned the hard way,  what it means to give someone  a finger in this case a thumb.  Ouch.... 


Simply saying one more episode from series "Just do it"

Chiltern cycleway

Date: 06.07.2014

Time: 20.00 BST

Location: Chinnor 

Maidenhead become my gateway to Chilterns,  which some time ago me and my friend Cristina visited unknowingly when cycling to Oxford.  

One of many attractions awaiting for just stone through from London is the Chinnor Railway.  Enthusiasticly run steam engines by volunteers,  the track is a only couple miles long though that's still takes you back in time when steam was a king on the track.  

Nearby is located an oldest smoked* Windmill called Lacey Green Windmill. On Sundays definitely during summer holidays the Windmill is open to the public. Saying that,  I reached it shortly before sunset and therefore stayed in a local pub where I enjoyed pint of Guinness. :-) I How to get to the he Lacey Green Windmill. 

Refreshed and rehydrated with only one pint and head on in to the night as the road to my Base was still a head of me.
