Back on the Bike

It was great to get out on the bike today. Danielle had bought me an Ortlieb bar bag for my mountain bike for Xmas, so I gave it a test run. My route took me through Tadcaster then on bridle ways to Sherborne and through a strange landscape of recently shut mines and railway systems at Gasgogne Wood to Selby and back to York on the old railway line.
This shot was near Saxton; it is one of those "in loving memory" benches, made more poignant to me by the location - looking across a bleak ploughed field towards a power station.
