It was far to nice yesterday so "Sod work" and go for a play , it was around 3pm so i thought a nice run to Domme and back , a nice hour of twisties.

Our lass was happy feeding her new friend with stale bread http://www.adventurebikerider.com/co.../whistling.png

This is only about 25km for home and on turning round for taking the pic i noticed "DIRT" http://www.adventurebikerider.com/co.../whistling.png

Unfortunatly after about a km it ended

Soon after here passed another inviting lane .............it'd be rude not to !!!
https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-7...o/IMG_1810.JPG


Realy easy riding and so many choices !!! left
https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-t...o/IMG_1811.JPG

I'd left the GPS at home so was just keeping the sun on my back and guessing http://www.adventurebikerider.com/co...icons/w00t.png

After maybe a klick or two i saw this in the woods
https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-d...o/IMG_1813.JPG


Turns out its a cave/pothole !!! you cant see on the pic but it must have been 20+ M deep

Now from here i passed through woods , fields and the odd tiny village and popped out , suprisingly VERY close to home !!!

https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-C...o/IMG_1816.JPG


Proper "Green lanes"
https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-I...o/IMG_1818.JPG


Backinto the woods
https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-H...o/IMG_1825.JPG


Tighter sections
https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-1...o/IMG_1827.JPG

https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-t...o/IMG_1826.JPG


More open stuff
https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-h...o/IMG_1833.JPG


Woods again
https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-1...o/IMG_1834.JPG


On to someones drive !!!! all legal though http://www.adventurebikerider.com/co...oticons/th.png
https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-m...o/IMG_1835.JPG


Then strangly enough i could have been in a differant country 90% of trees here are scrub oak , but here i'm in a pine forest with sand trails !!!
https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-r...o/IMG_1838.JPG


Someone put a BIG BLACK line across my trail !!
https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-f...o/IMG_1839.JPG


Within the next 10kms i'd come out of the woods in a place called Auniac 4 km from home!!!
I love it here ................a good 25kms of trails onmy door step i've never done after 10 years of being here http://www.adventurebikerider.com/co...oticons/th.png
