A weekend in West Lulworth

Dorset is a beautiful place. At the end of April we stayed in a B&B in West Lulworth and did some lovely coastal walking. Below I plotted the routes that we walked on Saturday and Sunday. By clicking on the View Larger Map link you get a better view in Google Maps and are able to see the elevation profiles of each walk. There are also links to the KML files which you can download to view the walks and profiles in Google Earth.

Ronde van Vlaanderen

We went to Belgium to watch the famous cycling race Ronde van Vlaanderen. And on the Saturday before the race, we had a chance to taste what it's like by cycling a shorter 75 km version of the route. It rained all day, but it was brilliant! Next year we'll be back for the 140 km version. We watched the professionals on Sunday at the steepest section of the "Muur van Geraardsbergen". Great atmosphere.

Hoar Frost (nl: rijp)

It was minus 6 degrees Centegrade when I made a pre-breakfast walk from my hotel in Bramhope, in the North of England. All night it had been very foggy and bitterly cold. This covered everything with a thick layer of hoar frost. Here are some pictures:
