Passing by the edge of the cold winter

Until the days of spring

Until the days of flower blossoms

Please stay, please stay there a little longer

A public bridleway sign that is slowly becoming a true part of the local landscape! The weathershielded side now has lichens creeping over it, textured against the fading green paint.

I know I'm fortunate - our rules allow one trip on the bike a day and I'm being so sensible. Stay local, short loops (if only because I may have to walk home) and ride on my own. The silence is now profound and the still, calm weather adds a strange sensation as if the world has slowed and shut down. In a way it has. It struck me that this sense probably hasn't existed here for a century, time before cars, radios, airplanes ...

Another splendid spring day in the Yorkshire Dales and on my sanctioned, local, safe bike ride.

Lots to choose from, this one stood out.

You can also follow me on Instagram if you fancy.
