Tour of the Mineral Tramways

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.

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!

Good to see you posting Brian. Keep going sir. In the East Midlands we don't get to see too many yachts stood like dominos. 🤭
