One of my favourite trips [of the very few I do] is Chesham
to Oxford and back, in terms of countryside, it's a great
route. Last week I did the Risboro/Thame section via the
Phoenix trail...and wish I hadn't. It was full of other
cyclists/walkers...and that ain't a place I want to be :-) I
think there was something of an 'event' going on, judging by
the number of people with numbers pined to their jerseys -
all of a sudden I longed for 'cagers' and the open road. But
in all seriousness, It's a great little track for mum's and
dad's with small kids on bikes, but no cafes along the trail
[I think it's an old railroad track], so you'll have to get
refreshments in either town - of which specific locations I
can't help you with I'm afraid.
Anyway, have a good trip.

Oh yes, indeed so!
I'm kind of rather fond of 'sidewalk' too actually, but
definitely prefer 'Guinness' to 'Bud'. No brainer :-)

Yup, I saw some mention of it. It was quiet today. Until we
arrived, anyway ;-)

Used to be able to drink Irish Guinness until they
expanded the Dublin Brewery and now it might as well come
from Park Royal

Their sidewalk equals our pavement. Their pavement
equals our road.

Just remember that they park on the driveway and drive on
the parkway and you'll be fine.

But if you do end up parking on the parkway, don't ask the
police officer for a fag.

taste right?

You seen the size of the ferries that make that trip? Bags
of room....

No way. We'll only complain if it runs out....
