Days 21 & 22!

Hi everyone,

I'm into my fourth week of biking now but exciting news as I have reached the south coast! I've now got a 27km cycle along the coast to reach the ferry. I will be cycling the crossing in my swimming gear, so watch out for that.. Ha! Glad it'll have some use after it's missed out on Center Parcs and Sorrento this year..!

I set off, continuing along the cycle path. There's not much I can say about the journey - it was generally peaceful and easy cycling! (Also Google Maps doesn't follow cycle paths!) There was a funky two-tiered bridge along the way. The cycle path ended just shy of Horsham, where I skirted around the very south west of the town. There were lots of country roads and fields.

Country roaaaads, take me to Paris!
I headed further south into Southwater, where I found a watersports activity centre! I took a short break from the cycling and hired a kayak for an hour. They hired out mountain bikes too, but I figured I was doing enough cycling already! There was a cafe too, so I grabbed some food as there isn't much else on my route.

It was back to the cycle paths and I headed on through Copsale and down to just east of a place called West Grinstead. This is where I stopped for the night!

All the cycle paths!
I woke up with a determination this morning to get some good cycling in. I headed towards Partridge Green and beyond. The cycle path took my on and brought me out by Henfield. Not for long at all though and it was back to my cycle paths again. It took me alongside the River Adur, through Upper Beeding and into Shoreham-by-Sea, which is where my journey ends today - just opposite Brighton Airport!

This evening I went for a lovely walk along the sea front & had some fish & chips. It was a good feeling to be by the coast again. I miss that.

Happy to be by the sea!
Stay safe & stay home,

Katherine
