Lots of hills

I've spent the week riding in Mid Wales, the area just north of Hay-On-Wye. None of the hills round there are very big, but they are beautiful swathes of open land where we saw no one all day. Beautiful wide grassy tracks to ride on, and of course the sunny weather all helped to make for a memorable week.

This picture was taken from the top of The Begwns at a place called The Roundabout, which I can't find any information about. It's a circular stone structure on top of the hill, with trees, the sort of thing that there must a history to, and if it was in snowdonia you'd have no trouble, but in this less visited part of the country you struggle!

Return

I've just got back from a week's riding in Mid-Wales. The photos are still on the memory card, but I will put some up later. Knitting has been going well, and Mum and I returned home to find more progress had been made on the house. It's actually starting to look finished which means attention is turning to renovating the garden....
