After a run out on the GSX to meet up with @BOA in Warwickshire, the GTR was selected for the next long run. A ride through the Cotswolds and into Oxfordsirebrough me to the magnificent Waddesdon Manor with a stop off at Brill Windmill on the return journey:

My first school was in the middle of those buildings.
My first home as a kid a short walk further on.
My parents still live nearby and own a couple of other houses in the area. 
Lots of memories.

19/04/2026 - An opportunity for another short ride opened up an as usual I chose the Z1000 (never a comfortable bike for a long run, but bloody good fun up to 40 miles from home). If you ask people where the first English Parliament was held, most would probably guess at London, but in fact it was at the tiny hamlet of Acton Burnell in Shropshire, in a barn next to the castle. I'd visited the castle  before but had not been aware of the historical ruin of the barn. As it goes, there is little left of the barn and what remains is now within the grounds of a school or college, so inaccessible. It was nice to have another stroll around the castle though and I still enjoyed the ride.
