Sunday 10th July – bike ***** – Early two rivers, Orwell to the Deben
– sunny and hot.
The heatwave continues with temperatures expected to reach 30 degrees
during the next few days! So, we decided to get out early on our bikes to
make the most of the peace and quiet with wall to wall sunshine:) We were
down on the prom at 6.30 with not a cloud in the sky and the deepest blue
too, definitely my favourite colour! We whizz along past The Manor and
through Landguard Nature reserve with rabbits running everywhere! We stop
by the River Orwell for a bit watching a small red coaster head out before
returning the same way, today Mag decides to carry on with me to Felixstowe
Ferry. We counted 15 campervans stopping overnight at The Fludgers, then
around to The Dip where we meet an old friend out walking her dog, stopping
for a chat. There are a few fishing boats out and a couple had paddled over
to the shingle bar in the River Deben to go fishing. It looked as lovely as
ever at the Ferry so walked out to the end of the jetty to take some pics
before heading out on the very bumpy River Deben path but we only had to go
as far as Kings Fleet before turning inland, then through the woods at The
Grove and home for a well-deserved breakfast.
With it supposed to blow 12 knots from the south I had one eye on Landguard
weather station while I did my exercises in the back garden while Mag
nipped up the town! Windsurfing mate Robert messaged to say he was heading
to The Dip, I checked again and with winds gusting over 14 knots another
foiling session was on! So after a quick lunch with Mag I headed down to
the beach at 1.
