Sugar Mountain

Going back in time for today’s title from Neil Young, a slightly tenuous link! Yesterday I was cycling just over the border in Wales doing two climbs the Tumble and Llangynidr Mountain (it is a long story why I was in Wales and not Yorkshire as originally planned but I will gloss over that). This is part of my training for the Pyrenees at the end of this month. Picture below is me reaching the summit of Llangynidr.

We were in Lancashire for a couple of days taking in one of our favourite bird reserves at Leighton Moss and I also did a football match at Accrington Stanley while Clare did a National Trust property nearby.  Leighton Moss didn’t disappoint with great views of Marsh Harrier. We also spent the Saturday morning in the town of Clitheroe, where I was in seventh heaven pottering in a super second hand bookshop.  The football was good a wonderful away win courtesy of a comedy own goal that I would of been proud of in my day. I was once known as Own Goal for some impressive strikes against my own team!
