Had a great ride yesterday. Gorgeous weather, lovely drying trails, and hardly anyone about.

So with my finger on the pulse of Sunday evening TV schedules, I had a go at Cornish stereotype-spotting: I encountered…

Disused engine houses (ridden past) – 3
Disused engine houses (seen) – lost count
Stone circles – 2
Individual standing stones – 1
Quoits – 2
Other megalithic monuments – 1
Old china clay works – 1
Majestic coastal scenery – loads
Moorland ponies – 8
Topless men cutting grass – 0
Demelzas – 1
Scowls – 1
Wurzels-tribute-band accents – 0

Not bad for a twenty mile ride, though there’s obviously room for improvement near the bottom of the list.

Seriously though, what a gorgeous day!

great post for a Monday.

Did you get a pic of the Demelza?

I’m married to her, so I’m not sure sharing pics with you lot will go down well… 😉

Spouse spotting definitely does not count. -1 right there. 😉

Poldark?

I’ll be leaving this ere then…

What was the ‘other megalithic monument’? Something to do with the fact you saw Demelza?

Men-an-tol

Ah. I was expecting better things, on the basis that men-an-tol would be included in the quoit count.
