On Sunday we rode stage four of our easterly trek. An hour’s drive took us to St Peter’s where we parked and unloaded the bikes in glorious sunshine. The previous day’s heavy rain had all soaked away and the trail was dry but somewhat less well-maintained than in more populous areas.
At one of the bridge crossings we watched a kingfisher hunting and saw a family of geese, their position in the reeds betrayed by honking. Insect life abounded and the slight tailwind meant they easily kept up with us (uncomfortably for us!).
With two possible turnaround points in mind, we chose the sooner in view of the heat and humidity. That simply means we now have two longer rides left to complete the ride to East Point
