National Cycle Route 11, specifically, which runs from Harlow to Cambridge. Frankly there isn’t much decent online coverage of the routes, but here’s Sustrans’ page on the East of England. (Sustrans’ server appears to be powered by potatoes, just try using their mapping page.) On Saturday Kyla and I cycled from Bishop’s Stortford back to Cambridge, a pleasant 35 miles that I felt sure was further whilst in transit. Discussions of cycling to Cornwall are becoming distressingly regular in our house, it seems that spring madness has infected us both; if that goes on long enough stubbornness will take over, and then that’s it: we’re fucking going.

My legs shake in fear.  I’ve speculatively added a Cycling category to the blog, but hopefully this won’t result in the blog becoming dominated by tales of chaffed body parts and bike grease.
