After filling up the Panzer with fuel , I wend my way through familiar countryside for another enjoyable ride ................ On the way to Minster Lovell .......... ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Then up through Field Assarts , before turning off toward Swinbrook ........... ![]() Most of the houses around here are made from local stone ........... ![]() Bloody hell .......more traffic .......... ![]() Coming into Swinbrook .............. ![]() ![]() It's really very pretty around here ................. ![]() ![]() Now on the way past St Oswalds church towards Burford ............. ![]() ![]() Here it is ................... ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() A river meanders through the countryside .............. ![]() I like these colours ............... ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() A swan ........very graceful ................. ![]() ![]() On the way home now .............time for reflection .............. ![]() ![]() The road home ............... ![]() ![]() It's good to ride , and today has been another fab day !!

Re: Mild October
Steve,
Beautiful pics. Those stone walls look like they've been there forever. They also look like a real good reason to practice (sure would not want to come in contact with one of those on the move!!). Really sweet looking bike too.

Re: Mild October
How do you ever manage to get anything done on sunny days!?! I'd never get off my motorcycle with country like that to see!!

Re: Mild October
Truly a beautiful November day! Glad you took advantage of it. Looks like a very peaceful area. A place one could easily get lost in thought while riding thru.
Thanks for sharing your day with us.

Get up really early , and ride EMPTY roads , with all the vista and wildlife to yourself ....then ride home for breakfast , do some chores , and get back out again as soon as you can I have had so many rewarding bike rides at this time of day , just got to keep an eagle eye out for PHEASANT , and deer - I always ride steady when on the country roads .Steve
