Out

I’m thinking of a bike ride to Christ’s Hospital (near Horsham) from Hove using the Down’s Link path. It’s about 23 miles there on a very flat cycle path. Unfortunately there’s no alternative cycle path home. You could cheat and get the train I suppose. Testing embeddable Google Maps:

*No, it’s not playing ball. It’s showing the USA.

Here’s a handy PDF guide to the whole route from Shoreham to Guildford. And here’s some more guides to bike rides in Sussex.

Hopefully the new Cycle Path from Brighton Seafront to The South Downs will be completed soon. The path should lead up The Drive to Hove Park and then up to Blatchington Mill and beyond. Please let me know if the plans are online as I can’t find them anywhere.

And once you’ve cycled your belly away why not replace it with the ingenious Beer Belly Beverage Holder. This will be all the rage next summer I promise you.

Oh, and if you’re a fan of Stephen Fry then why not check out his new blog, or blessays as he calls them.
