03/11/2013 A ride along the coastal path at Newhaven with Iren

Sunday, November 3rd, 2013

Went out for a quick ride with Iren

We set off from the car park from the Sussex Ouse Valley Way just outside Seaford,

We started off on the wrong foot when we found ( without clobbering the barrier) we were too high to clear the barrier

So we unloaded the car then parked it (don’t you just love having the bikes on the roof ?

We then found that the wind was high.

We rode along the path to Newhaven continuing to where the path ends at Halfords

Then we turned round and rode back to the layby by the carpark

Then fatso ran to the car and brought it to the layby for loading.
