The Ridgeway
23rd April, St George's Day.
Today was my longest off-road cycle ride for at least 8 years. Moonface dropped me at Streatley, then I rode unsteadily back towards Chippenham along the Ridgeway and other tracks, passing the Uffington White Horse, Waylands Smithy, Barbury Castle, Avebury, Silbury Hill, Cherhill old airfield, a canal path and a disused railway line.Five thousand years of history and wide-ranging views of an idealised England.
The kites were flying on the Eastern section, dozens wheeling and soaring above and below me.
