Good fun. The Womble is quite singlespeedable. The Ouachita less so. (Good thing we had gears
that day.)

Nice pics, as usual.

If you want to know what a Womble is (and I guess it's an English thing):
http://www.jediman.free-online.co.uk/childrenstv/Childrens_TV_Index.htm?Wombles/Wombles.htm&1

"Underground, overground, Wombling free, The Wombles of Wimbledon, common are we.

Making good use of the things that we find, Things that the everyday folks leave behind"

Oh yeah, that had never occurred to me. Must have been the long pause between Wimbledon and Common
that I ingested as a child, but put that down as a D'oh! moment.

I loved Bagpuss too

Kath and I have Bagpuss' body stuffed down between the centre of the headboard of the new bed and
the wall, with his big pink and white head peering over the top of it. Truly, at certain moments,
it's quite inspiring........

I have a couple helmetcam videos (and pictures too) of this same trail, and you may be able to
recognize some of Anthony's pictures in the video.

No kidding. None of the roads go where you need them to go. They all go to Cousin Cletus' cabin or
the tire store.... AND the tire store I guess. http://www.anthonysloan.com/OurKansas/ouachitax.jpg A
