Did an overnighter in Wells-next-the-Sea this week, testing stuff for upcoming tour. Good thing I did, too.
Shortly after I took this picture, a truck came by and the windblast blew the bike over and broke the derailleur hanger. So I did about 50mi with a bodged single speed setup. Fun. I've now ordered a replacement and a spare...
Anyway, it was a lovely route, amazing wild camp spot at the edge of the woods overlooking West Sands in a little hollow. Nice to do an inner-only pitch. Fish and chips were had. Arty hares found. Local driveway-bought eggs for breakfast. Swam in the sea in the morning. Cycled to Cromer, bought some fancy cheese and got the train home the next day. All in all pretty good.
