Getting fit the enjoyable way

As promised our cycle ride around the golf course and along the water edge. 
Cams Hall, just before Fareham.

 It's a good path most of the way
 Looking towards the Spinnaker tower

 Farmland just past golf course
 Near Portchester football club, The Wreck, I love this spot.

 The shore by Salt cafe, sadly not open for a treat of coffee and cake. 
The route to this ride is along A27 from Portchester to Fareham, I am loving the roads are not busy at all, but most of the way there are cycle paths. Once we get back to the football club, we cycle home on local estate roads. The whole route is 6 miles and it took just under an hour, but we did stop often to take photo's. The tide was on it's way out, so still not the best photo's. We do count ourselves lucky to live in such a lovely part of our country, being in the south we are warmer and dryer than most parts of UK. I am feeling pleased with myself, I'm getting stronger, I just have to hope my coughing calms down, I don't start coughing until I'm home, so no worried looks from people when I am cycling along.

  1. Lovely pictures Marlene. We've only seen the Spinnaker tower close up once, it's an impressive structure isn't it. Nice to see hubby looking so fit and well. And it must do your mental wellbeing a lot of good being able to get out and cycle xx

  7. What a lovely bike ride. I would like to go out on my bike here but I'm put off by how many people are out cycling around. I should just do it anyway and it might not be as bad as I think.
