18th May 2022 Mt. Biking: Around Felixstowe Wind Direction: Wind Stength: Surf / Sea State: Air Temperature: Sea Temperature: Weather: sunny and warm Max Speed: 14.36 (knots - unless stated otherwise) Distance Covered: 14.38 mile (Nautical Miles - unless stated otherwise) Wednesday 18th May – bike ***** – Around Felixstowe including lunch with ‘Emily’ at Falkenham Church – sunny and warm:). The good weather continues with another sunny, warm day with light breezes making it ideal for a bike ride. So the usual morning at home doing my exercises in the back garden which is looking absolutely lovely as Mags fingers are getting greener and greener:) Then Mag some delicious tuna pasta and we set off on our bikes around 12.20, as we had to deliver a birthday card at our sons house in Walton, just out of Felixstowe to decided to head to our favourite picnic spot Falkenham Church but do it the other way round which is good as not so many uphill’s:) The tree lined avenue track was very peaceful and full of cow paisley as was the whole bike ride, Suffolk is looking particularly beautiful at the moment. Turning towards Trimley we cross the A 14 and cross over several fields where the crops are coming on well, the salad leaves we saw being planted a short time ago are now coming along well, as is the wheat. Our seat was free, in fact we saw very few people on most of the ride, just perfect. We sat in the sun enjoying lunch with stunning views down to the Deben with a buzzard overhead! We continue down towards Kings Fleet where we stop and chat to windsurfing friends Chris and Marion Stephens in their full bee keeping gear about to look at three hives that they recently put there! We sit on one of the fishing platforms for a cuppa watching the swans and dragon flies before carrying onto the River Deben path leading to Felixstowe Ferry. A quick trip around the boat yard with the tide high but whizzing out. Then past the golf course taking the prom back which again was fairly quiet. A top cycle being out for 3 hours 30 minutes covering a little over 14 miles. Tonight is supposed to be interesting with thunder and heavy rain, Mag will be pleased if our butts are filled again!
