16th July 2022 Mt. Biking: Around Felixstowe Wind Direction: Wind Stength: Surf / Sea State: Air Temperature: Sea Temperature: Weather: Sunny and hot :) Max Speed: 14.92 (knots - unless stated otherwise) Distance Covered: 19.11 mile (Nautical Miles - unless stated otherwise) Saturday 16th July – bike ***** – Two rivers including lunch at Kirton Church– sunny and hot. The good weather continues with another glorious sunny day but the supper hot weather has not arrived yet:) Its Stat – urday on wordle where the winner from last weekend picks the word, Mag thrashed me this week, she is on a roll! With a chance of a sea breeze later we thought it was a good idea to head out on our bikes for breakfast, so with Weetabix and fruit packed we set off around 9.30, Mag gets side tracked by a neighbour and has a long chat. We make a small detour to take something back to Homebase, deliver another letter to our son’s house with Mags e-wheel playing up, it keep going into full power which scared her! After resetting it, it behaved its self and then Mag followed me as she did not know where we were going? I had my setting on manual as I didn’t think I needed any help on the flat Trimley High Street, in fact I absolutely flow all the way to our breakfast spot, Kirrton Churrch with Mag struggling to keep up. It was not until we found a nice bench in the shade, I realised I had my power slider set at about one third, no wonder I was whizzing along and there was me thinking I was super fit! We enjoyed breakfast relaxing in the quiet church grounds surrounded by wild flowers and butterflies:) We then take the footpaths and tracks leading to Falkenham Church and onto Kings Fleet where we see several kids doing their Duke of Edinburgh hike with full rucksack! Mag decides to take Marsh Lane route home while I take the Deben path to Felixstowe Ferry to check the wind. There is loads of action at the jetty with the ferryboat busy, loads of yachts on the river and the lady rowers a bit further down river and all in wall to wall sunshine with hardly a cloud in the sky with a nice onshore breeze, probably a little marginal for foiling but great to a day on the beach. I carried on along past the golf course then around to the busy Fudgers but I slowly cycle along the prom weaving in and out of the people, nice to see so many people enjoying s day by the seaside. There are several boats out to sea including another large container ship coming in. As it looked too light for windsurfing, I decided to continue all the way to the River Orwell to ship the container ship come in. Then back through Landguard Nature reserve, Langer Park and home around one just in time for a yummy sandwich with Mag. With the breeze still light I do my exercises in the back garden, then I get a WhatsApp message from Robert about 2.40 saying he, Michael and Mark were heading to The Manor so I decided to go and see but didn’t think I would be able to park in Squiz Lane?
