St Michael's Mount*
South Wheal Frances to St Michael's Mount with a little excursion to Wheal Uny at the end as I had a little left in the tank. My first foray into the Mount's Bay area.

A very lumpy ride plus lots of rough rocky ground and stopping to take pictures lead to a low average speed.
A rather long but fantastic day out all the same.
Pictures as follows,
1. Gwennap Pit, picture taken in 2025, I forgot to take a pic' as I got…

Hey Brian, great cycle. Just thought I'd drop a message to say I did not cycle the NCN 1 north sea route, I had saved the activity to try and save the gpx file as other methods were not working, and it came up as completed! Just thought a little clarification was needed, I'm toying with the idea though!
