The move to the 'flatlands' draws closer, just waiting for final solicitory bits, hopefully exchange of contracts won't be too long and we can get moving date.
Well I guess the village (all going well) is on hill, it's a heady 10m above sea level, and I guess the road to the nearest town of St. Ives does go over what passes for a mountain around there as it goes over the 30 metre contour. But FGS the road our current house is on rises about 20 metres in maybe 300 metres or so.
I think this is going to take bit of readjustment....... -- Chris French, Leeds

Where and when? (By private mail if preferred). I'll drop around with a welcome cake next time I'm visiting the folks!
If my Windows system hadn't committed suicide I'd break out MemoryMap and track it down from the description, although that does sound like pretty much everywhere in Cambs.

One of the boys in the lab has just bought memory map. I've planned this weeks mini tour on it (write up later..) and looked at the route profile. Scary..

How dare you! East Anglia is not flat! We have railway bridges.

I've been known to cycle to the Dyke's End pub, and often walk along the Devil's Dyke, but don't know of any cycling routes that are made not-flat by it.

The sloping sides make excellent 'practice' areas for slalom bikes .. I guess ... 😉

Never seen any, though there was a burnt out small motorbike at one time near the disused railway. Some of it was covered in scrubby bushes, but they are cutting a lot of that back. Even the grassy slopes are fairly rough though. http://www.cambridgeshire.gov.uk/environment/countryside/biodiversity/ projects/devils_dyke/
