My strategy for navigation when out on my bike is pretty much “Oooh… what’s down here?”
Today, as usual, I went somewhere I’d never been before and found this secret pond (well, I didn’t know about it) relatively close to my house. Not quite sure how I’ve managed to go this long without knowing it’s there…
Here’s a map link. It’s that light green bit in the middle of the trees.
Sadly, the enormous heron that was standing next to it took off before I could get my camera out. That would have been an even nicer shot.
I then got on the canals and ended up at the Landrover factory, before heading home along regular old streets.
This was the round trip, give or take.
